Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Ex library copy with no external stickers. Remnants of date due slip on inside page, now covered with blank ex libris bookplate sticker. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still excellent.

The life story of Australian and Commonwealth champion boxer Wally Carr (1954-2019). It is a powerful biographical story about a young Wiradjuri boy, Wally Carr, escaping the dreaded Aboriginal Welfare Board, a journey from the heartbreak and crushing loneliness of childhood to the mean streets of Sydney's Redfern.

From hunting goannas, Jimmy Sharman's boxing tents, rugby league, professional boxing and the first Aboriginal Tent Embassy to present-day struggles and lifestyles, My Longest Round offers a vital snapshot of Aboriginal and Australian history. (Trove)

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers, please note that this book may contain descriptions and/or images of people who have passed away.
