Robbery Under Arms by Rolf Boldrewood (the pen name of Thomas Alexander Browne) is a classic Australian colonial novel that tells the gripping tale of bushranging, adventure, and moral reckoning in the 19th-century outback. Narrated by Dick Marston, a young man drawn into a life of crime alongside his brother Jim and the infamous Captain Starlight, the story traces their exploits across the rugged Australian landscape as they engage in cattle duffing, bank robberies, and daring escapes. Amid the action, the novel explores themes of loyalty, redemption, and the consequences of choices made in youth.
