The Kangaroo Kid

ONE JUMP AHEAD OF THE BUSHRANGERS...TWO JUMPS AHEAD OF THE LAW

A 19th-century San Francisco detective named Tex Kinnane is sent "Down Under" to nab shyster lawyer Vincent Moller. Several comparisons are made between the American Wild West and the equally treacherous Australian outback.
