Popularized story of the activities and campaigns of Red Kangaroo (Cumbo Gunnerah), a Gamilaraay (Kamilaroi) warrior chief who flourished in the Coonabarabran / Gunnedah area c.1745. (Trove)

It would be hard top find a more satisfying hero than the young warrior Red Kangaroo, who by his mental and physical prowess became chief of his tribe - the revered and powerful Red Chief of the Gunnedah.

A true story handed down from generation to generation by its hero's tribe and given by its last survivor, King Bungaree, to the white settlers of the district. (book flap)
