This book is an extraordinary account of people from far north Kimberley Western Australia. Chalarimeri tells of the lives and customs of his people and the clash of two cultures. Born more than 60 years ago in his traditional country Oomarri on the King George River, Chalarimeri was raised under the strict influence of the Spanish Benedictine monks at Kalumburu Mission.
