This is the 4th copy of the book which I have loaned to others and which have disappeared into the reading community. My own family contributed to early researchers into the Bundjalung language & often spent days speaking the language instead of English. McQUILTY RALLEY EXTON & JACKSON are some connections.
I keep recommending various books to people to try to inform them of First Nations History of which most have not a clue.

Will read cover to cover.. again!

Totally interesting, yet terribly sad information on the place I grew up and call home. I read it cover to cover and will so again one day. Must read! Very least a flick through, especially if you live on bundjaling land.
