We all think we know the story of Ned Kelly, Australia s most famous outlaw, but we ve never seen him in full color like this before Edward Ned Kelly was born in 1855 into a poor Irish immigrant family in rural Victoria. He grew up loyal to his family, angry at the injustice he saw in Australian society and desperate to better his situation by any means. Often in trouble with the police, with the so-called Kelly Gang he was involved in horse and cattle stealing, bank robbing, kidnapping and ultimately murder. But he was the only bushranger to write a famous and compelling letter explaining his behavior. Folk hero or criminal, this is the story of Ned Kelly as you ve never seen it before."
