This was the proud boast of the tiny inn used by the Kelly Gang in 1880. Ann Jones was a wily Irishwoman whose home and business soon became the scene of one of the most terrifying and momentous occasions in Australian history.

Derail History: Glenrowan depicts the tragic siege of Glenrowan in 1880 that saw the destruction of the Kelly Gang and etched them into legend.

One of Australia's most notorious bushranger gangs, the Kelly gang comprised of Ned Kelly, his little brother Dan and their friends Joe Byrne and Steve Hart. Between October 1878 and June 1880 they were the most wanted men in the British Empire until they had one final stand-off with police at Glenrowan.

Ned Kelly is considered by many to be Australia's greatest folk hero. Some look at him as Australia's answer to Robin Hood while others considered him a psychopathic thug. Kelly was a bushranger who operated in Victoria and New South Wales in the late 1870s before fighting the police in home-made armour in 1880. He was hanged in Old Melbourne Gaol.

Steve Hart was a jockey and larrikin who threw away a respectable life to take up arms with his mate Dan Kelly as a bushranger. Aggressive and impulsive, Steve was effectively the gang's attack dog, helping Ned to persuade his victims into cooperating.

The most renowned of Australia's bushrangers, Ned Kelly has become a folk hero to many for his anti-authority stance. Known for his suit of home-made iron armour that he wore during the Glenrowan siege with its distinct cylindrical helmet, he is one of the most recognised figures in Australian history.

An Outlaw's Journal is dedicated to the memory of Joe Byrne, a 19th century outlaw and member of the infamous Kelly Gang. It tells his story through dramatic reconstructions based on detailed historical knowledge.
