Résumé
"Robbery Under Arms" is a gripping narrative set in the rugged Australian bush and goldfields, chronicling the tumultuous life of Dick Marston. The story unfolds through Dick's perspective as he reflects on his life choices while awaiting execution. Born into a family with a history of crime, Dick and his brother Jim grow up in a world where cattle duffing and bushranging are common. Despite their mother's efforts to steer them towards a lawful life, the allure of quick money and adventure proves too strong. The brothers become entangled in a series of criminal activities, including cattle theft and highway robbery, under the influence of their father and the notorious Captain Starlight. As they navigate the perils of their outlaw lifestyle, they face moral dilemmas and the constant threat of capture by the police. The narrative delves into themes of family loyalty, the struggle between right and wrong, and the harsh realities of life on the run. Through Dick's introspective recounting, the novel explores the consequences of choices and the possibility of redemption, set against the backdrop of Australia's untamed wilderness.
