About

Alexander Green dispatched 409 offenders in his official role of hangman and finisher of the law in the colony of New South Wales.

A convicted thief, he arrived in Sydney in 1824 on a life sentence. Conditionally pardoned a year later, he soon became official flogger and assistant hangman, graduating to hangman-in-chief, a job he held for nearly thirty years.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome fine line drawings
