Beskrivelse

Tom Petrie (1831-1910), an intrepid explorer and grazier, made his way to the convict settlement of Moreton Bay in 1837. His vivid reminiscences of the emerging colony of Queensland, meticulously recorded by his daughter Constance in 1904, offer a compelling glimpse into the life and customs of the Aboriginal population. Petrie, fluent in their dialect and actively engaged in their cultural practices, provides invaluable insights into the complex interactions between Aboriginal communities and white settlers. This Australian classic stands as a crucial resource for anyone interested in the early conflicts and collaborations between these two worlds.
