When young Reuben Whitneyis falsely accused of a crime, he barely escapes being convicted and imprisoned. Realizing that his reputation has been damaged, he resolves to travel to the new British colony in Australia and start anew life. Along the way to Australia Reuben learns about sailing and has an adventure in South Africa. Once in Australia Reuben joins the police force and is sent to patrol the Australian Outback. There he encounters natives and bush rangers-outlaws-who will stop at nothing to get what they want. Will Reuben survive? Will he find out who framed him and clear his name? These and other questions will be answered in G.A. Henty's A Final Reckoning. Set in eighteenth-century England, South Africa, and Australia, this book includes more than thirty geographical, historical, and explanatory footnotes to aid the modern reader.
