Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance

In 1894, Jandamarra, a young Aboriginal man who had lived among whites, led the Bunuba people in a rebellion (which would last for over two years) against the white settlers on the Western Australian frontier. Pedersen (affiliation not cited) analyzes historical sources such as police and newspaper accounts in conjunction with Banjo Woorunmurra's and other Bunuba people's oral histories, which contain information on atrocities committed by whites not mentioned by the victors. This reprint of the 1995 edition includes numerous bandw and color photographs. Distributed in the U.S. by ISBS. c. Book News Inc.
