Projet De Cr ation D'une Colonie P nitentiaire Aux Nouvelle-H brides (Polyn sie), written by E WALTON and published in 1868, explores the proposal for establishing a penal colony in the New Hebrides, now Vanuatu. This historical document provides insights into the colonial ambitions and penal practices of 19th-century France. Walton's work offers a detailed examination of the motivations, logistics, and potential impact of such a project in the Polynesian region. The book sheds light on the social and political considerations surrounding the establishment of penal settlements and their role in the broader context of French colonialism.
