X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>In <em>Boundary Crossers</em>\, historian 
 Meg Foster reveals the stories of bushrangers who didn&rsquo\;t fit the mo
 uld. African American man Black Douglas\, who was seen as the terror of th
 e Victorian goldfields\, Sam Poo\, known as Australia&rsquo\;s only Chines
 e bushranger\, Aboriginal man Jimmy Governor\, who was renowned as a mass 
 murderer\, and Captain Thunderbolt&rsquo\;s partner\, Aboriginal woman Mar
 y Ann Bugg\, whose extraordinary exploits extended well beyond her time as
  &lsquo\;the Captain&rsquo\;s Lady&rsquo\;.</p>\n<p>These bushrangers&rsqu
 o\; remarkable lives have been forgotten\, obscured\, misrepresented or er
 ased from the national story for over a century\, and this is no accident.
  All is not as it appears. There is far more to these bushrangers\, and th
 eir histories\, than immediately meets the eye.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>MEG FOSTE
