Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. **Shortlisted, 2023 Prime Ministers Literary Awards, Australian History Prize**Part way through the Jerilderie Letter, Ned Kelly accused Senior Constable Anthony Strahan of threatening him: he would not ask me to stand he would shoot me first like a dog. Those few fateful words have echoed through Australian history as the cause of much bloodshed and violence. They marked Anthony forever and ushered in a national myth: the legend of the Kelly Gang.Two days after Anthony allegedly made this threat, Ned and his gang shot dead several police in an act of brutality that became known as the Stringybark Creek killings. Neds reason for opening fire? He said he had mistaken one cop for Strahan.Lachlan Strahan, Anthonys great-great-grandson, grew up with the familiar story of Ned Kelly, the egalitarian rebel, and his ancestor as the villainous cop who had threatened him. Yet as he began to probe into Anthonys life, he discovered that the truth and the Kelly legend it has given rise to was more complex than he believed. Anthony Strahan was a boy from County Kildare who joined the Victoria Police and embodied the thin blue line of law and order in the bush for nearly thirty-five years. He was also possessed of a fiery temper and a desire for justice, and was a major player in the hunt for Ned Kelly, though never recognised for it. Did he utter those incendiary words about Ned? Whose version of history do we believe?This is a tale about law enforcement about justice and retribution, character and morality. It is also about making a life against the odds in a wild frontier society, race relations, intergenerational shame and anger. Readers will learn more about the Kelly Gang, the Wooragee Outrage, Saucy Jack, a game called Swindle, the Pender Affair and many other criminals, some petty and some villainous. They will strap in for a damn good ride.This is a fascinating and original history, taut and suspenseful, written with subtlety and flair. Tom GriffithsLachlan Strahan brings to life a lost world of rural Victoria in the era of gold-seeking, free selection and bushranging. Frank Bongiorno'.a fascinating book' Eureka Street 'a rewarding, yet unusual retelling of the Ned Kelly story' History NewsA brilliant and original window into the Kelly Outbreak of the hunter rather than just the hunted.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Partway through the Jerilderie Letter, Ned Kelly accused Senior Constable Anthony Strahan of threatening to shoot him like a dog. Those few fateful words have ricocheted through Australian history. Many have blamed Anthony Strahan for the turmoil and bloodshed that unfolded during the Kelly Outbreak. For, two days after Anthony reputedly made his threat, Ned and his gang shot dead three policemen at Stringybark Creek. Neds reason for opening fire? He thought one of the cops was Anthony.Lachlan Strahan, Anthonys great-great-grandson, grew up believing Ned Kelly was a heroic outlaw and Anthony the ruthless cop who pursued him. Yet as he combed through letters, police reports, court transcripts, newspaper articles and family histories, Lachlan pieced together a different story about the life of his ancestor a fiery Irish immigrant who embodied the thin blue line in the bush for 32 years. Bent on justice, Anthony Strahan apprehended all manner of criminals, from brazen fraudsters and wily horse thieves to murderous husbands and the bushrangers who perpetrated the Wooragee Outrage. Yet his legacy was forever ensnared in the Kelly legend. Did Anthony utter those incendiary words about Ned? Whose version of history do we believe?This is a tale about justice and retribution, morality and character, and making a life against the odds in a frontier society. It is also a story of inheritance: of the words passed from father to son, and the tales we choose to preserve and retell. The biography of Anthony Strahan, a frontier cop who pursued Ned Kelly Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
