Book Description
Secondhand. Near fine condition.
Aliens & Savages is the only publication of its kind, a survey of racism and xenophobia in Australian popular writings before the advent of social media.
It is a collection of fiction and non-fiction, personal narratives and official reports, diaries and media misinformation. In it, you can hear the unguarded voices of the colonists, the squatters, and the politicians; you can see the close relationship between the popular press and the prejudices of its readers.
