Full title: This Is Your Place: Beagle Bay Mission, 1890–1990: Birthplace and Cradle of Catholic Presence in the Kimberley edited by Brigida Nailon and Francis Huegel

Beagle Bay is the birthplace of a Catholic presence in the Kimberley. A tribute to community in the words of those who came from across the Kimberley to the historic mission at Ngarlan, Beagle Bay.

From 1890 until recent times, this Catholic mission served as a pivotal meeting point and training ground for generations. The result was threads of relationships, cultural ties, and emotional connections that reverberate to this day.

An important document of the times by the people who lived them. (back cover)
