This book charts the thorny path of racial conflict over Western Australia's first 100 years of settled history.
It's a disturbing account spanning the initial tit-for-tat killings, rising to the undeclared war of extermination in the Kimberley, and concluding with oppressive measures of State control over its original inhabitants.
In between are a few luminaries and rare deeds of compassion. (book flap)
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers, please note that this book may contain descriptions and/or images of people who have passed away.
