Quando tentei pesquisar mais sobre Mary, descobri que foi feito um filme baseado na sua história, e vou tentar arranja-lo para ver.

I totally recommend the book especially if you are into fiction based on true stories. This will totally have you researching more about Mary Broad. Remember Me is the title of the true story of Mary Broad, a woman sentenced of deportation by theft to Australia, in a reintegration project founded by England to populate this area. Mary was known as the first person to organise and participate in a well-succeeded escape from the penal colony. In that escape there were her husband, seven men and her two small children besides her. They were able to travel through around 5 000kms on a sailing boat in open sea. The book follows the protagonist since she leaves her parents’ house until the moment of the theft, including the violent boat trip, the horror in Australia, the intricate escape, the death of the children, her husband and people she considered family among other problems.Mas a verdade é que "Nunca Me Esqueças" é um romance histórico, que cobre um período da vida da inglesa Mary Broad (ou Bryant), uma mulher que ficou famosa pelo facto de, depois de cometer um roubo e ter sido deportada para a Austrália em finais do século XVIII, conseguiu fugir da colónia com os filhos e alguns companheiros, percorrendo cerca de 5.000 km num "pequeno" barco.
