AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Kura is the first of a series of books of yarns told by our Nyungar Elders throughout the South West region of Western Australia. The story of William Thomas Bennell a Nyungar Elder from the Brookton area tells more than the story of one man's life and how it relates to the past, present, and future.' (Source: Preface)

Notes

  • Dedication: This book is dedicated to my father and mother Don and Sylvia Collard who supported me through many of the personal decisions I had to make while preparing the following information. Special thanks to Aunty Jean and Uncle Fred. Also many thanks to Sandy, Alan, John, Stella, Adrian, Linda and Steve, for their support and help. Last but not least, to Albert and Family for being there when needed.
