When Little Else takes up the Wild Roaming Life, she rides a huge horse called Outlaw, who used to belong to a bushranger. After Little Else frees a team of bullocks from a nasty bullock driver, she is wanted for cattle duffing. Soon she is wanted for horse rustling as well. But when she frees some prisoners in chains, she becomes the leader of a gang of bushrangers and then she's really on the run... (Libraries Australia).
