Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Over a century before Mabo and generations before 'Terra Nullius', Aboriginal land rights were briefly acknowledged by the early colonists of South Australia and Victoria. The way to Hell is paved with good intentions. Lust…for land snuffed out hopes for a fair go, as the original owners of the land were pushed to the margins. This book looks at the way colonists exploited humanitarian rhetoric developed by England's anti-slavery movement to oust Aboriginal claims; how they reinvented the Common Law of property to secure their own title, twisting legal analysis and economic theory to suit their aims. It also explores the interactions between colonists and governments in Hobart, Sydney and London.

Soft cover. Condición: Very Good. 3rd Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still excellent. In the grim Depression days, 12-year-old Clarrie Pankhurst left home on the River Murray. He found an adventurous life on the great stock routes, taking huge mobs of cattle to Queens…land from stations in WA and the Territory. The drovers are gone now, replaced by road trains. Their hair-raising escapades, sense of humour, and full, generous lives live on in the yarns and memories, paintings, and photos in this book. From the author of Wild Cattle, Wild Country and Pioneers of the Kimberley.
