Summary
This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
Captain Moonlite was a very different character compared to other famous Australian Bushrangers.
Despite the fantastic nickname there's been conspicuously little information available about him.
That was until journalist and author, Garry Linnell started looking into the story.
The result is a great book that uncovers some surprising aspects of Moonlite story. Aspects some say are the reason he hasn't been eulogised like his contemporaries.
