Summary This book looks at the most notorious of Australia's bushrangers - men who were fugitives from the Law, who robbed, stole stock and sometimes killed. From this lawless period of our past when most men went armed, the names of Frank Gardiner, bold Ben Hall, Captain Thunderbolt, Captain Moonlight and Ned Kelly are well remembered
