Benevolence In Punishment: Or Transportation Made Reformatory is a book written by Seeley Burnside and Seeley, published in 1845. The book explores the concept of transportation as a means of punishment for criminals, and argues that it can be reformatory rather than purely punitive. The authors suggest that transportation to a new colony can provide an opportunity for criminals to start a new life and reform their ways. They argue that the harsh conditions of transportation can serve as a deterrent to future criminal behavior, while also providing an opportunity for rehabilitation through education and work. The book also discusses the history of transportation as a form of punishment in England, and compares it to other forms of punishment such as imprisonment and the death penalty. The authors argue that transportation is a more humane and effective form of punishment, and that it can ultimately benefit both the criminal and society as a whole. Overall, Benevolence In Punishment: Or Transportation Made Reformatory is a thought-provoking exploration of the role of punishment in society, and offers a unique perspective on the potential benefits of transportation as a means of reformation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
