Queensland Desperadoes

Description

Set in the second half of the nineteenth century, the tales range from the senseless murder of Parrick Halligan for 77 ounces of gold to the unrelenting hounding by the police of the reformed bushranger Frank ‘Darkie’ Gardiner, from the brutal and planned murders committed by a Gold Commissioner.
Queensland Desperadoes is a very readable collection of yarns about Queensland’s wild and adventurous past.
