Hardcover. Zustand: AS NEW COPY. AUSTRALANA Aboriginal -Gapps, Mina Murray and Henry Reynolds. This is the first book to tell the story of the continental sweep of massacres, guerilla warfare, resistance and the contests of firearms and traditional Aboriginal weaponry as Indigenous nations resisted colonial occupation of their lands, territory by territory. At stake was the sovereignty of an entire country.Black and white writers tell the stories of these battles across three crucial time periods, and all the states and territories. It notes the lands that were unconquered, as well as the role of disease, weapons and tactics, and the story of women on the frontier.This history is still alive in those descendants who carry the stories of their ancestors.ÂThe Australian WarsÂbrings what for too long has been considered the historical past into the present so that we might know the truth of the origins of this nation.âAs it peels back the enduring veils of silence and denial about our shared past,ÂThe Australian WarsÂexposes a complex legacy of shame, pride, crime and valour. It offers us an opportunity to ask ourselves, in a spirit of humility and honesty, what it truly means to be an Australian patriot. The authors of this work have delivered a huge favour wrapped in a hard lesson.â TIM WINTONâAn inspiring, game-changing work of collective truth-telling about our shared history.â KATE GRENVILLEâThis book provides the most comprehensive account available of the continental violence against Aboriginal people during the colonial settlement and some of its consequences today. Rachel Perkins and her fellow editors have done us all a great service in bringing this history together. Some opinions will be disputed and there will be debate about how these conflicts will be characterised and memorialised, but it is for all Australians, whether descended from the pioneer generations or not, to respond to this history by ensuring that every person in todayâs Australia is treated with equal respect and dignity, and provided with the opportunities that all people deserveâ DAVID KEMP ACâTogether with the TV seriesÂThe Australian WarsÂputs down a marker: no more denial, no more cant. These wars happened and we cannot blink them away. The Australian frontier was a battlefield, and we should recognise this as we recognise those other battlefields in Turkey, France and New Guinea. We should remember the dead, honour the brave. It will give us a firmer basis for thinking clearly about who we are and what to do.â DON WATSONâThere was a fight for this country and in many places an intense one where the colonials were held at bay. This book has the best of contemporary research. It will ensure that the original people of this nation are not denied the dignity of their resistance and the truth telling has the edge it should.â KIM BEAZLEYâThe Australian WarsÂis a compelling call to truth-telling and national reckoning. It exposes the historical amnesia surrounding Australiaâs foundation, comparing the silencing of the Frontier Wars to that of the Stolen Generations. Through sharp critique of national institutions like the Australian War Memorial and a demand for the inclusion of Indigenous histories, the authors urge Australians to confront the realities of colonial violence. This is more than a chronicle of the past-it is a challenge to reshape national memory, honour Indigenous resistance as patriotic, and build a future rooted in justice and shared truth.ÂThe Australian WarsÂis a powerful, meticulously researched, and deeply moving account that redefines Australiaâs colonial history through the lens of Indigenous resistance and truth-telling. Edited by Rachel Perkins, Stephen Gapps, Mina Murray, and Henry Reynolds, the book confronts the long-denied reality of the Frontier Wars, offering a compelling blend of personal testimony, historical analysis, and cultural insight. It challenges the myths of peaceful settlement, honours the courage of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and calls for national reckoning and remembrance. Essential reading for all Australians, this book is a landmark contribution to our understanding of the violent foundations of modern Australia.â THE HON KEN WYATT ACâFar from presenting a singular and uncompromising truth, this book encompasses manyâ¦read it to understand the importance of truth-telling for Aboriginal Australians, and for the multiplicity of truths that it contains.â AUSTRALIAN BOOK REVIEWpp. xx 396 illusts First Edition #310826 Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
