"I wish to acquaint you with some occurrences of the present past and future." Edward Kelly - The Jerilderie Letter 1879 The story of Australia's ironclad outlaw, Ned Kelly, has been told countless times in film, book, and song. The shootout at Stringybark Creek and the infamous siege at Glenrowan are events which shaped the nation - but there is more to Ned's story, including the character defining, bareknuckle, scrap with feared bar-room brawler, Isaiah 'Wild' Wright. Ned was only sixteen when he rode into the township of Greta on a horse loaned to him by Wright. Ned had no idea the horse was stolen, but he was still arrested, beaten, and sentenced to three years hard labor. Ned can't get those years back, but he can make the horse thief pay for his deception. With honour and justice at stake, two of the hardest men of all time will come to scratch in a battle for the ages. A story of betrayal, revenge, and ultimately friendship, The Iron Fists of Ned Kelly is another rollicking tale from the author of 'King of the Outback.'
