Download or read book Coniston written by Michael Bradley and published by UWA Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Mowed them down wholesale!’ With these words, a judge summed up the last great punitive massacre of Aboriginal people in Australia. Coniston, Central Australia, 1928: the murder of an itinerant prospector at this isolated station by local Warlpiri triggered a series of police-led expeditions that ranged over vast areas for two months, as the hunting parties shot down victims by the dozen. The official death toll, declared by the whitewash federal inquiry as being all in self-defence, was 31. The real number was certainly multiples of that. Coniston has never before been fully researched and recorded; with this book that absence in Australia’s history is now filled. As the last great mass killing in our country’s genocidal past but an event largely unremembered, it reminds us that, without truth, there can be no reconciliation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two teen-age brothers vanish walking home from school, and are found dead more than twenty miles from their posh Trinity School on the upper west side of Manhattan. They set out to walk home to their family’s Fifth Avenue mansion, near 96thStreet. Were they kidnapped? No ransom demand is ever made. How did the boys get to Westchester County? They both died from blunt force trauma, probably from falling from a tree or a cliff. Based on a real family tragedy from the late Middle Ages but set in today’s New York, Monte Carlo and Westchester County, the story of who did what to whom in the troubled Coniston family is surprising and chilling.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Thousands of people come to watch particular players because there is something about them that they can connect with and that excites, and Liam is doing just thataBut he's also showing that he's a great man, a special person." -Jimmy Stynes, President of the Melbourne Football Club. Known as the 'Warlpiri Warrior,' the 'Jurrahcane' and 'Cougar,' Liam Jurrah is a rising star of the AFL, known for his startling displays of skill, artistry and the 'deadly' impact of his football ability. But despite Liam's prodigious talent, he is a relative newcomer to the AFL. This book tells the incredible journey travelled by Liam, a fully initiated Warlpiri man, from the remote Aboriginal desert community of Yuendumu to the MCG, as the first of his kind to play football at an elite level. Written by the man whose family provided a home for Liam when he first moved to Melbourne, this is the story of how Liam learned about life in the 'big smoke,' his time at Collingwood and his recruitment by Jimmy Stynes and the Melbourne Football club. Along the way the book describes how the author and his family came to understand and treasure the richness of Liam's Warlpiri culture. According to Martin Flanagan, "Liam Jurrah is like no other sports story in Australia, and possibly the world, at this time."
