Quintus Servinton, considered Australia's first novel, is the loosely autobiographical story of Henry Savery, an Englishman convicted of forgery and sentenced to "transportation", that is, sent to Australia as convict labor to help establish the colonies. It is considered an Australian classic and evokes the extremely harsh life endured by Savery and others.
