Book Description
Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges.
Charters Towers is better known as a gold town than an Indigenous town. This book fills a gap in the story that is told about a town. This is a book that people of all ages should read to understand Australia's history.
Award-winning anthropologist Sally Babidge has collaborated with local elders Val Alberts and Patricia Dallachy to gather oral history and local family photographs. Combining these with archival research, they have produced an accessible account of Charters Towers' hidden Indigenous history. (back cover)
