Dramatic action stories from Australia's past:
The Lachlan Bushrangers - Frank Gardiner got out of Cockatoo Island Prison with no intention of going straight. He pulled off Australia's greatest gold robbery and created a gang of bushrangers that included Ben Hall, Johnny Gilbert, and John O'Meally. They lived violently and died violently. The Lambing Flat Riots - The gold rush brought lawlessness and anti-Chinese riots, with police troopers under attack from one thousand armed diggers. Captain Moonlite - From pastor to bushranger. Andrew Scott, obsessed with a need for recognition, led a gang of young men in a vain attempt at bushranger glory that ended at the Darlinghurst gallows. Squizzy Taylor - The rise and fall of the diminutive criminal who became a celebrity amidst the gangland violence of Melbourne in the 1920s. The Bombing Of Darwin - The surprise Japanese attack on Darwin called Australia's Pearl Harbour, with personal stories of those beneath the bombs and the sacrifice of Australian and American servicemen who perished on land, sea, and air defending her.

History dramatised in the same fashion as its companion volume Historic Gunfights Of Australia.
