Naomi Parry Duncan's biography of Musquito — a Bidjigal man from the Sydney region who became one of the most significant First Nations resistance fighters of the early Australian colonies. Musquito was a young man when the First Fleet arrived at Port Jackson in 1788. Seventeen years later he was fighting for his Country west of Sydney, pursued by colonists. He was exiled first to Norfolk Island then to Van Diemen's Land, where he joined Palawa people in the resistance that ignited the Black War.

Robert Travers's 1968 account of the fate of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania — from first European contact through the Black War and the removal of the surviving population to Flinders Island, to the death of Truganini in 1876. Published in 1968, this is a vintage history of its era — it reflects the understanding and approach to Aboriginal Tasmanian history that was current at that time, before the more critical and rigorous scholarship of recent decades.

The story was adapted into a highly regarded Australian film in 1980, directed by John Honey and produced by the Tasmanian Film Corporation.
