"ROLF BOLDREWOOD, the pen name of Thomas Alexander Browne (1826-1915), Anglo-Australian novelist, was born in London Aug. 6 1826 and was educated at Sydney College, N.S.W. He had an adventurous early life in Australia, being successively a sheep farmer, a pioneer squatter in Victoria and police magistrate and warden of goldfields till 1895. These varied colonial experiences furnished him with material for his long series of bushranging novels, of which Robbery under Arms is the most widely known.

Amongst his other books are The Miner's Right (1890); A Modern Buccaneer (1894); The Babes in the Bush (190o) and A Tale of the Golden West (1906). He died at South Yarra, Melbourne, March 1 r 1915.
