hardcover. First edition. Clean copy fine in dust wrapper. DW sunned to spine and showing light shelf wear. Remains a very good copy
This story is the song of Australia, and it sings its protest in a voice at once crude and delicate, menacing and heart-wrenching. The author gives us Ned Kelly as orphan, as Oedipus, as horse thief, farmer, bushranger, reformer, bank-robber, police-killer and as his country's Robin Hood.
