A century after its first publication, Robbery Under Arms remains as fresh and enthralling as when it originally appeared in serial form in the Sydney Mail. Related in first person by bushranger Dick Marston as he awaits his appointment with the gallows, the novel vividly evokes his turbulent years as cattleduffer and bushranger in company with his father Ben, brother Jim and the gentleman adventurer, Captain Starlight.
