| Summary | "Blacks and Bushrangers: Adventures in Queensland" by E. B. Kennedy is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The narrative explores the adventures of Mat Stanley, a young gipsy with a passion for the wilds of Queensland, alongside his brother Tim and their dog, Jumper. Their journey involves encounters with Indigenous Australians, bushrangers, and the challenges of navigating both the wilderness and the ocean. The opening of the book introduces the Stanley family, particularly focusing on Mat's adventurous spirit and his aspirations to emigrate to Australia for a freer life. The siblings are depicted with contrasting dispositions, highlighting Mat's robust and daring nature versus Tim's more cautious approach due to health issues. Through a series of events, including a fateful encounter with a bushranger and a perilous shipwreck, the brothers find themselves washed ashore on an island. The narrative sets the stage for their subsequent adventures among the native tribes, where they navigate the intricacies of survival and cultural interactions in a new and unforgiving land.
