Tasmania, or Van Diemen's Land as it was once called, was an island of stark contrasts; a harsh penal colony, an English idyll for its landed gentry, and an island so rich in natural resources it was a profiteer's paradise.
Tiger Men is the story of three Tasmanian settlers: Silas Stanford, a wealthy Englishman; Mick O'Callaghan, an Irishman on the run; and Jefferson Powell, an idealistic American.
A former actress and TV presenter, Judy Nunn is the bestselling Aussie author of Pacific, Floodtide and Maralinga.
