Book Synopsis Djabugay Country by : Timothy David Reis Bottoms
Download or read book Djabugay Country written by Timothy David Reis Bottoms and published by Allen & Unwin Academic. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From time immemorial, a people called the Djabugay lived in the rainforests behind Cairns in Tropical Far North Queensland. Trade routes from the coast to the lush tablelands and beyond linked established settlements; outrigger canoes voyaged along the coast and out into the Great Barrier Reef." "Today, 130 years after the coming of the white man, the Djabugay are a remnant - their lands taken away from them, their Storywaters partially lost. But they are a remnant determined to make their way in a transformed world." "Djabugay Country is the story of this people and their struggle - what happened to them and how it happened. It takes us from first contact between the rainforest dwellers and the newcomers to the present day. Through accounts of the lives of families and individuals, it shows how out of dispossession and tragedy has come strength and hope."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Invasion and Resistance by : Noel Loos
Download or read book Invasion and Resistance written by Noel Loos and published by Boolarong Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North Queensland has long been a frontier province of Aboriginal Australia. Well before Europeans penetrated to the south-west Pacific, the Torres Strait Islanders had regular and extensive contact with Aboriginal groups in Cape York Peninsula and the Dutch had visited the coast at intervals since 1606. Not till the coming of the white settler in the mid nineteenth century, however, did ‘invasion’ begin. When it did, the Aborigines were dispossessed of their land and, since in British eyes they had no title to it, resistance was considered a criminal activity. This book studies Aboriginal-European relations on four different frontiers of contact. Though the pastoral industry led to the colonisation of most of North Queensland other parts were also the scene of confrontation: the gold mines, the timber-getting areas of the rainforest which later were settled by farmers and the pearlshell and bêche-de-mer areas on the far north coast. In all areas, despite sometimes armed resistance by the Aborigines, the Europeans imposed their authority. This book has something challenging to say to all white Australians interested in the basic values on which their society is based and is an essential reference for Aborigines wanting to know how and why they were dispossessed.
