"Against a background of indescribable brutality the first Australian bushrangers were not surprisingly desperate convicts - 'bolters' - who had escaped from the penal settlements of New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land. Their names are part of Australian history and of the Australian tradition: Michael Howe a self-styled 'Governor of the Ranges'; gallant Matthew Brady first of the 'gentlemen bushrangers'; the notorious Martin Cash who rode roughshod over authority later surviving years of imprisonment to die 'an honest man'; 'Bold' Jack Donohoe the original 'Wild Colonial Boy'. Volume One of Charles White's classic account of Australian bushranging recounts in vivid detail the deeds of the early 'bush bandits'. Attracted by the fast free life these native-born Australians plundered the gold escorts and crowded coaches fighting it out with the police - heroes in the eyes of the public they robbed."

After receiving the news of Gordon's death the acting Premier of New South Wales William Bede Dalley offered to dispatch a force of infantry and artillery to assist the Imperial Army in the Soudan. The offer is of help was accepted and on March 3 1885 a contingent of over 760 men under Colonel J. F. Richardson sailed for Suakin in eastern Soudan. The force included and infantry Battalion a field artillery battery an ambulance Corps and a band. The contingent saw little service and departed from Suakin for Sydney on 18 May 1885. However as New South Wales was the first colony of the Empire to dispatch a military expeditionary Force overseas in support of the mother country the precedent established a principle which would be followed again by dominions and colonies in subsequent wars. It also established the principle of forward defence to Australia. This book gives a short account of the events leading to the attempt to rescue Gordon of subsequent operations and of the involvement of the New South Wales contingents with this force." -- from the verso of the front panel.
