Haunts of the Bushrangers: The Lives and Deaths of Eight Australian Bushrangers by Frank Haddon

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges, with ink marks on top and tail book edges. Dust jacket has light creasing at edges and spine. Interior and binding are still excellent.

The Australian bush was both home and protection to the bushranger.

The true stories of eight Australian bushrangers are told in chronological order - Dan Morgan, Ben Hll, James McPerson, Frank Gardiner, Michael Howe, Andrew Scott - Captain Moonlite and Fred Ward - Captain Thunderbolt.

Frank Haddon presents the information as recorded in first-person accounts, coronial reports, newspapers and other contemporary documents: more than 90 contemporary photographs, etchings and newspaper articles.

The reader is also taken on a modern visit to the sites where bushrangers once roamed through Leo Meier's colour photographs. Maps for each bushranger's area show where to go, how to get there, and what to see. (book flap)
