About this product
Product Information
The frontiersmen who came to the Victoria River District of Australia's Northern Territory included cattle and horse thieves, outlaws, capitalists, dreamers, drunks, madmen and others, from the explorers of the 1830s and 1850s to the founders of the big stations in the 1880s and 1890s, and the cattle duffers in the early 1900s. This book looks at them all. Drawing on painstaking research into obscure and rich documentary sources, Aboriginal oral traditions, and first-hand investigations conducted in the region over thirty-five years, Darrell Lewis pieces together the complex interactions between the environment, the powerful and warlike Aboriginal tribes and the settlers and their cattle, which produced what truly became A Wild History. 'A gift to the nation', Nicolas Rothwell, The Australian 'A very readable portrait of a genuine frontier ... an isolated outpost whose isolation only really ended in the late 20th century', Steven Carroll, The Age 'An extraordinary inversion of the Australian frontier with which we think we are familiar - and a brilliant piece of mythbusting', Professor Tom Griffiths, Australian National University
