According to Harding he was the greatest bushranger and bushman ever to swing into a saddle. One could counter both claims quite easily. Personally, I don’t consider him a bushranger. He was certainly a highly successful horse thief and he certainly travelled extensively around the backblocks. However, I don’t consider he meets any of the normal criteria for bushrangers, including in the 1850s.
