Premise

edit

According to advertising "Dealing as they will with one of the most colorful phases of Australian History — the era of those wild and dangerous but withal picturesque, ruffians who took to the Australian bush and became a race apart from civilised society — the Series will carry to listeners a vivid mental picture of the rare charm and the peculiar, lure of the Australian country-side; the rugged life of men and women under the gums; their rollicking ballads, their camp-fire yarns, their quaint bush lore; and most of all the stark drama of their struggles against the .bushranging outlaws who came, as fire and drought and flood, like evil, things from the Buslilands to prey upon them in their pioneering efforts."[8]
