'Remembering the Forgotten is the first comprehensive study of the Deebing Creek Aboriginal Mission in Queensland? a mission which began at a site near Ipswich in the late 1880s and which closed during world war one.A major feature of the book is that it identifies some 300 Aboriginal people who were at Deebing Creek during its existence. These included a core of Yuggera people but also many more who were removed to the mission from 50 other sites throughout Queensland.This book is a valuable and pertinent source for everyone who wishes to understand our shared past: Murries who are seeking more information about their family histories; readers who are interested in finding out still largely unknown aspects of Queensland?s absorbing history; and educators and students in Indigenous Studies, and Australian Studies and Cultural Studies.'
