Über diesen Titel

Author, Ian Jones, acknowledged Kelly authority, shares with us the results of a lifetime's research. For the first time, Ned Kelly truly emerges as a man - a man who hated conflict yet never escaped it. A private man incapable of being ordinary and unnoticed. A man who was seen, even in his own lifetime, as what he represented rather than what he was.©1995 Ian Jones (P)2008 Bolinda Publishing Australien, Neuseeland & Ozeanien Historisch Mord True Crime

Beschreibung von Audible

Author and screenwriter Ian Jones offers a detailed, in-depth look at bushranger Ned Kelly, a uniquely Australian outlaw celebrated in some circles as a folk hero while condemned as a murderer in others. Listeners fascinated by Ned Kelly and the layers of legend around him will appreciate Jones’ historical research, masterful sense of storytelling, and sympathetic yet even-handed account. Performer Paul English brings a crisp enunciation and lilting accent to the story of one of Australia’s most famous figures, whose words at the gallows - "Tell ‘em I died game" - have become an Australian catchphrase.

Kritikerstimmen

"This is his immense contribution to the Kelly story." (The Age)

"Here at last, the ironclad figure is revealed with striking clarity … This is the best Kelly biography by a country mile." (The Australian)
