Publisher's Synopsis

This volume deserves wide readership. Dawson was the first European to spend any length of time in the land and company of the aborigines of New South Wales. His highly readable and often hilarious account of his three years amongst these natives was written to give a true picture of this new country to potential immigrants and to redress the widely held opinion that the aborigines were mere savages. ] ].
