Thomas Muir was a brave and true Scot whose campaign for more rights for his fellow citizens led in the 1790s to his transportation to Australia as a political prisoner. He eventually escaped and returned to Europe determinedly opposed to the English who had unjustly dominated his native land, and ended his short life plotting for the invasion of Britain by the French Revolutionary armies. Patriot and traitor.
