Description

“I lost my very own father at 12 yr. Old and know very well what it's to be raised on lies and silences my dear daughter you're presently too young to comprehend a word I write but this history is for you and will contain not one lie may I burn-in Hell if I speak false.”In True History of the Kelly Gang, the famous Ned Kelly talks for herself, writing his story on wayward scraps of paper in semiliterate but amazingly detailed writing as he flees from law enforcement. To his pursuers, Kelly is only a massive criminal, a thief and a killer. To their own people, the class of ordinary Australians, the bushranger is just a hero, defying the power of the Language to direct their lives.
