When 276 poor British emigrants sail away from Plymouth on the ship Emigrant in April 1850, seeking a better life in Australia, they know nothing of the ordeal that lies ahead. For four terrible months at sea they endure cramped and squalid conditions, insufferable heat, bitter cold ... and a mounting death toll from the dreaded disease that rages through the ship: typhus. Their stories are tales of hardship, resilience, courage and despair.
