Forgotten War
 
(0 reviews)  

Australia is dotted with memorials to soldiers who fought in wars overseas. Why are there no official memorials or commemorations of the wars that were fought on Australian soil between Aborigines and white colonists? Why is it more controversial to talk about the frontier war now than it was one hundred years ago?

A thorough and systematic account of what caused the frontier wars between white colonists and Aborigines in Australia, how many people died and whether the colonists themselves saw frontier conflict as a form of warfare.

A book that makes it clear there can be no reconciliation without acknowledging the wars fought on Australian soil.
