Winner of the Australian and New Zealand Law and History Society Annual Prize in Legal History 2025 (Best Monograph)Investigating the history of vagrants in colonial Australia and New Zealand, this book provides insights into the histories and identities of marginalised peoples in the British Pacific Empire.
