Boney
is an Australian television series which lasted for two seasons from
1971 to 1972. The series is centred on Detective Inspector Napoleon
Bonaparte, a half-Australian Aboriginal character, created by Arthur
Upfield, who wrote twenty nine novels about him from 1929 until his
death in 1964. Several of Upfield's books were re-published with TV-themed
covers. A list of all 29 Boney books by Arthur Upfield are listed at
the bottom of the page. The gallery below is incomplete so if anyone
has good scans of the rest of these, please email

List
of Arthur Upfield's 29 "Boney" Books
(Original publication dates shown only)
The
series of books was always supposed to have been "Boney" as
the spelling but a publication error in the early days led to several
of the books published with the spelling "Bony".
