Robbery Under Arms is a classic Australian novel written by Rolf Boldrewood. The story follows the adventures of Dick Marston, a young man who becomes involved in the criminal world of bushranging, or highway robbery, in the Australian outback during the mid-19th century. Along with his brother Jim and their gang of fellow bushrangers, Dick carries out a series of daring robberies and evades the law as they roam the countryside.As the story unfolds, Dick begins to question his life of crime and the toll it takes on himself and his loved ones. He is torn between loyalty to his brother and the desire to turn his life around and start anew. Along the way, he encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a beautiful young woman named Kate Morrison, who captures his heart.Robbery Under Arms is a thrilling adventure story that captures the spirit of the Australian frontier and explores themes of loyalty, redemption, and the consequences of one's actions. Boldrewood's vivid descriptions of the landscape and the characters' exploits bring the story to life and make it a beloved classic of Australian literature.Rolf Boldrewood's Story of Life and Adventure in the Bush and in the Goldfields of Australia -- who'd've thought we still title 'em that way?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
