-
If you use '-' in front of a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.
ex: Harry -Potter will return results without the word 'Potter'.
AND
If you use 'AND' between two words, then both of those words will be present in the search results.
ex: Harry AND Potter will return results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
OR
If you use 'OR' between two words, then bth of those words may or may not be present in the search results.
ex: Harry OR Potter will return results with just 'Harry', results with just 'Potter' and results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.
NOT
If you use 'NOT' before a word, then that word will be absent in the search results.

ex: "Harry Potter" will return any results with 'Harry Potter' in them, but not 'Potter Harry'.
*
Using '*' in a word will perform a wildcard search. The '*' signifies any number of characters. Searches can not start with a wildcard.
ex: Pot*er will return results with words starting with 'Pot' and ending in 'er'. In this case, 'Potter' will be a match.

Ned Kelly and the Green Sash
The green sash was one of Ned Kellyâs most treasured possessions, given to him when he was eleven years old by Esau Shelton of Avenel, as a reward for rescuing his son from drowning. The public recognition for his bravery was pivotal in Nedâs early days. The green sash would assume poignant significance later in Ned Kellyâs short life when it was last worn beneath Nedâs famous suit of armour, on the day when all his courage was needed. The bloodstained sash was souvenired from the outlawâs bullet-riddled body after the siege at Glenrowan in 1880. Ned Kellyâs exploits have captivated generations. Some say he was a hero â fearless, free and bold â ready to sacrifice himself for his mates. But to others he was a ruthless villain, a common horse thief and a black-hearted murderer. Ned Kelly and the Green Sash offers a window into the character of a poor barefoot boy, once honoured for an act of selfless bravery, who became Australiaâs most notorious outlaw.
