Told from the perspective of Australia's first people, it vividly brings to life the events that unfolded when the oldest living culture in the world was overrun by the world's greatest empire.Seven of Australia's leading historians reveal the true stories of individuals-both black and white-caught in an epic drama of friendship, revenge, loss and victory in Australia's most transformative period of history. Their story begins in 1788 in Warrane, now known as Sydney, with the friendship between an Englishman, Governor Phillip, and the kidnapped warrior Bennelong. It ends in 1993 with Koiki Mabo's legal challenge to the foundation of Australia. 606 $aAboriginal Australians, Treatment of 606 $aAboriginal Australians$xHistory$vPictorial works 606 $aAboriginal Australians$xHistory 607 $aAustralia$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAboriginal Australians, Treatment of. 615 0$aAboriginal Australians$xHistory 615 0$aAboriginal Australians$xHistory. 676 $a994.0049915 702 $aPerkins$b Rachel$f1970-, 702 $aLangton$b Marcia$f1951-, 702 $aAtkinson$b Wayne 702 $aBoyce$b James$c(Historian), 702 $aKimber$b Richard$g(Richard G.), 702 $aKinnane$b Stephen$f1967-, 702 $aLoos$b Noel 702 $aPascoe$b Bruce$f1947-, 801 0$bAuAdUSA 801 1$bAuAdUSA 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480519203321 996 $aFirst Australians$92008368 997 $aUNINA
