Above all it is the story of conflict: between the Aborigines and the white settlers. In this dramatic novel, introduced here by Humphrey McQueen, a large cast of characters, historical and fictional, black and white, convict and settler, brings alive those bitter years with moments of tenderness and conciliation amid the brutality and hostility., All the while, behind the veneer of British civilisation, lies the baffling presence of Australia, a timeless land that shares with England not even its seasons or its stars., Public Domain (P)2009 Bolinda Publishing
