'Robbie Walker was born in Port Augusta, a member of a family of twelve children. He is of Aboriginal descent. The family moved around a during his early years and he attended different schools. His education was disrupted by clashes with the law from his early teens, and he attained only First Year High School standard. Since then Robbie has been in and out of Boy's Homes and Gaol. Whilst in Gaol he began to write down his feelings. This booklet is a selection of those writings.' (Source: back cover) Sighted 13/07/2010.
