Henry Hunter (1866) and William Madden (1871) took advantage of the isolation west of the lower Dawson River, Central Queensland, using it to successfully rob mail men who journeyed on horseback along the dray roads. They were pursued by dedicated teams of Police officers, including Sub-Inspector George Elliott, who displayed outstanding courage when he arrested Hunter following a shoot-out. This book reveals the exploits of the bushrangers of this area, including Frank Gardiner, Frederick Ward, and James Alpin MacPherson, the reports of their deeds published in newspapers across the colonies making them heroes to some, and a scourge to be thwarted to others. This true account, gleaned from historical records and the author's family history, is a tribute to the dedication of the police in apprehending those responsible for the crimes against the postal service.
