| Description |
Lagged tells the story of a boy convicted as a pick- pocket in London in 1792 and transported to Botany Bay for seven years. Consists entirely of graphics from the period using sepia-tint photographs and contemporary ballads and suggests that a convict in Australia was better off than a coal miner in England, at least up to 1836. |
