From the author of Australian Ripping Yarns - More true stories your history teacher didn't tell you. Buccaneers and blood-curdling cannibals, heroes and villains, legends and low life. An absorbing cavalcade of characters and events that helped shape the Australian heritage. The Hollywood idols, the deadly enigmas, the sporting epics, the pirates and the macabre - an absorbing and entertaining read. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

As you can guess, any book of ripping yarns from Australia is bound to include Errol Flynn, the Thunderbolt Kid and Jack Johnson (an American but included here due to his involvement in the 1908 "Fight of the Century" in Sydney). There's also an array of lesser known lights mentioned, including Eugenia Falleni, "Chinese" Morrison and the poor unfortunates Bogle and Chandler.
All in all, definitely worth your while reading this (and Vol. 1 while you're at it). ( )
