The History Of The Ancient Australian Convict Ship "Success" And Its Most Notorious Prisoners

Printed by Jontzen Printing Co: Cleveland, Ohio USA 1929

" Success was an Australian prison ship, built in 1840 at Natmoo, Burma, for Cockerell & Co. of Calcutta. Between the 1890s and the 1930s, she was converted into a floating museum displaying relics of the convict era and purporting to represent the horrors of penal transportation in Great Britain and the United States of America. After extensive world tours she was destroyed in 1946 by fire while berthed in Lake Erie near Cleveland, Ohio."
