AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Brissenden looks at the variation between the serial version and the first English edition of Robbery Under Arms and concludes that excised passages were dispensable. The revisions produced a structure that is more compact and concentrated with a faster pace and more consistent tone. The use of colloquial language in conjunction with the pacey narrative may be a crucial element in the continued popularity of Robbery Under Arms.
