In 1876 the world was stunned by the news that a Yankee had tweaked the nose of the British Empire and stolen away six Fenian prisoners from the penal colony of Western Australia. The Fenians were British army mutineers and Irish patriots who had planned revolution, were caught and sentenced to life imprisonment. Captain Anthony of New Bedford was hired by the Clan-na-Gael to rescue them. This is the story of that rescue. pp. 134 illusts. #0218/1120/0521 ISBN 10: 0859053083 ISBN 13: 9780859053082
