Abstract

Fascinating story of the only treaties ever made between white settlers and Aboriginal people in Australia. It contemplates why whites forged these agreements and how the Aboriginal people understood their terms, why the govt repudiated them and how the whites claimed to be the rightful owners. B Attwood, Monash University.
