For countless generations, coastal country in the west Kimberley region of northwest Australia has been the home of Dambeemangaddee Traditional Owners. Barddabardda Wodjenangorddee: We're Telling All of You describes the deep history of this country.

In it, senior people describe their country's creation during Lalai and provide recollections of ancestors' lives. The book also draws on archival sources and information Dambeemangaddee people have shared with early missionaries and anthropologists, while incorporating cultural knowledge senior people have imparted over the past four decades to the book's compilers and authors.
