The narrative chronicles the early years of Australia's colonization from 1788 to 1793, highlighting the arrival of convicts, military personnel, and administrators in New South Wales. It delves into the challenges and experiences faced by these groups as they establish a new settlement, exploring themes of survival, governance, and the impact of colonization on both the newcomers and the Indigenous populations. Keneally's portrayal captures the complex dynamics of this pivotal historical moment.
