'Follows the struggle of the Victorian Wurundjeri people, and others, to retain control of the Coranderrk Aboriginal station, a fight that they ultimately lost. It is these events which Diane Barwick describes and analyses.'
'The publication of this book is an attempt to rectify some of the injustices of the past two hundred years, and to prevent similar occurrences in the future. The 'rebellion' at Coranderrk is reflected in current political events. This book is a parable for today.' (Source: Publisher's website; Fishpond website)
