'The Darug and Their Neighbours presents a general history of the Darug people and their immediate neighbours—the Dharawal and Gundungurra peoples of the greater Sydney region. Four families from this region are the focus of the book, in an effort to demonstrate that there are many Darug descendants still living in the Sydney area. The book has three clear parts: a general historical introduction (comprising 144 pages); descendant charts of four families (62 pages); and dictionaries of the Darug, Kuringgai and Gundungurra languages (54 pages).'  (Introduction)
