Overview
Since the arrival of the First Fleet, thousands of prisoners have escaped from prison, police stations, courts, prison vans and hospitals--even dentists' chairs. They have driven, walked, pedalled, swum or sailed away from custody. Some have killed or been killed in the process; a few have gone overseas or escaped from foreign prisons, and a handful have remained at home, undetected. Gangland: The Great Escapes is filled with tall tales of crims--Ronald Ryan, Jockey Smith, Brenden Abbott, Julie Wright and Annie Davis, and many others--who have been recaptured in minutes and those who have stayed on the run.
