For the Term of His Natural Life

Description

For the Term of His Natural Life is a fantastic tale, which sometimes depends on false lucks. The tale details the affluences of Rufus Dawes, a youthful lad accused for the crime of stealing that he never did, from the fatality of a robbery to whom he was really offering his help. The cruel and degrading behavior imposed on the prisoners, most of whom were incarcerated for moderately slight offenses, are apparently taken. The situations undergone by the felons are explicitly pronounced. The book was grounded on a study by the writer and a duty call to the penitentiary of Port Arthur.

Marcus Andrew Hislop Clarke FRSA was a British-born Australian author and poet, highly remarkable for his documentary For the Term of His Natural Life.

He was even then scribbling tales for the Australian Magazine, when he later became a part of the staff of The Argus in Melbourne by the indorsement of Dr. Robert Lewins. He quickly dropped by Tasmania at the suggestion of The Argus to go through at the earliest basics of essays he was drafting on the term of the offender. Old Stories Retold started to be seen in The Australasian from February. The next month his popular tale His Natural Life subsequently retitled For the Term of His Natural Life, began its runs in the Australasian Journal. He was also a secretary to the representatives of the Melbourne Athenauem and afterwards as a substitute assistant Librarian. He established the Yorick Club, which promptly listed within its members the leading Australian litterateur.

The best known of his works is For the Term of his Natural Life, an impressive story of an Australian penitentiary. He also authored The Peripatetic Philosopher, a chain of entertaining articles republished from The Australasian; Long Odds, a work of fiction; and countless mockeries and rigmaroles, the preeminent of which was Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
