SECONDHAND BOOKS | Aboriginal

This is the thrilling true story of the great Aboriginal resistance fighter, Jandamarra - a legend, forever etched into the history of the Australian landscape. Set in the magnificent Kimberley outback during the late nineteenth century when the last stage of Australian invasion is about to be played out in the lands of the Bunuba people. Amid the ensuing chaos and turmoil, extraordinary and sometimes contradictory relationships are forged, which will reach long into the future. Jandamarra died on his own soil defending his country. He is a true Australian hero. This book is the winner of 1996 Western Australian Premier Book Award and was shortlisted for New South Wales Premier Literary Awards in 1996.

1995, First edition. A very good copy with only very bumping of the corners of the wraps and light sun fading of the spine.
