Description: London, Hurst and Blackett [1894]. Octavo publisher's dark green cloth. A rather good, bright copy. ¶ Only edition of this thriller - a somewhat sticky novel mixing history into the bushranging thrills - in which we meet the chivalrous and dashing Thunderbolt and equally dashing Major in pursuit, the well bred but unspoilt young ladies, and the rough but true bushmen and diggers. Appended is a short glossary of Australianisms.
