	Bushranger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bushrangers were outlaws who used the Australian "bush" as a refuge to hide from the authorities between committing their robberies, roughly analogous to the British-American "highwayman".
		The first bushrangers were escaped convicts fleeing from the early Australian penal colonies.
		In Australian history and iconography bushrangers are held in some esteem in some quarters due to the harshness and anti-Catholicism of the colonial authorities whom they embarrassed, and the romanticism of the lawlessness they represented.

	Gang
		Edward Kelly, the leader of the outlaws, was born in 1854, at Wallan Wallan, and from an early age was regarded by the Police as an incorrigible thief.
		Byrne acted as scribe to the party, reducing to writing the plans for the attacks upon banks and other contemplated robberies, which were rigidly adhered to.
		He had attended the same school as Joe Byrne, and the intimacy that had grown up there was continued after school days were over, the two engaging in horse-stealing raids together, and forming close criminal business relationships with the Kellys.

	Bushrangers FAQ
		However, the bottom line is that, despite bushranging being seen as a "manly" crime, they were all potentially violent criminals prepared to use maximum force to enforce their demands for other people‚s hard-earned possessions.
		Some of the surviving bushrangers of the 1860s were released in a general amnesty in 1874 and most returned to their old haunts.
		In fact one bushranger was arrested after he forgot to wash the back of his neck and was recognised by the coach driver he robbed.

		And that’s why the always-up-for-it Englishman has traded the elven ears he wore as Legolas Greenleaf in the Lord Of The Rings trilogy for a Colt.32 and a life on the lam as Joe Byrne, loyal lieutenant to Ned Kelly and probably the most enigmatic cat on horseback yet.
		Eldest son of respectable farmers, he was quiet, handsome, educated, gifted with words (particularly in the company of the ladies), and spoke several languages when he wasn’t smoking opium and laying down lead for Ned.
		Playing the outlaw, a lady-killer, a sharpshooter, a multi-linguist, and an opium toker such as Joe wasn’t as big a stretch as you might imagine for a man so enamoured with the wild side of life as Bloom is.
