Binding good. 290pp Tongerlongeter is an epic story of resistance, sorrow and survival. Leader of the Oyster Bay nation of south-east Tasmania in the 1820s and '30s, Tongerlongeter and his allies prosecuted the most effective frontier resistance ever mounted on Australian soil, in?icting some 354 casualties. His brilliant campaign inspired terror throughout the colony, forcing Governor George Arthur to counter with a massive military operation in 1830. Tongerlongeter escaped but the cumulative losses had taken their toll. On New Year's Eve 1831, having lost his arm, his country, and all but 25 of his people, the chief agreed to an armistice. In exile on Flinders Island, Tongerlongeter united remnant tribes and became the settlement's 'King' - a beacon of hope in a hopeless situation. Size: 150mm x 235mm. Book.

Softcover. Zustand: Near Fine. AUSTRALIANA ABORIGINAL -At its core,ÂThe Black WarÂis a story about two peoples who just wanted to be free of each other . . . sooner or later Europeans and Aborigines were bound to clash, but it was Tasmania's unique circumstances that turned this encounter into a 'war of extermination'.' Between 1825 and 1831 close to 200 Britons and 1000 Aborigines died violently in Tasmania's Black War. It was by far the most intense frontier conflict in Australia's history, yet many Australians know little about it.ÂThe Black WarÂtakes a unique approach to this historic event, looking chiefly at the experiences and attitudes of those who took part in the conflict. By contrasting the perspectives of colonists and Aborigines, Nicholas Clements takes a deeply human look at the events that led to the shocking violence and tragedy of the war, detailing raw personal accounts that shed light on the tribes, families and individuals involved as they struggled to survive in their turbulent world.ÂThe Black WarÂpresents a compelling and challenging view of our early contact history, the legacy of which reverberates strongly to the present day.ÂForeword by Henry ReynoldsBetween 1825 and 1831 close to 200 Britons and 1000 Aborigines died violently in Tasmania's Black War.

Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. An epic story of resistance, suffering and survival. Tongerlongeter resurrects a once-in-a-generation leader all Australians can admire. Australia has no war hero more impressive than Tongerlongeter. Leader of the Oyster Bay nation of south-east Tasmania in the 1820s and '30s, he and his allies led the most effective frontier resistance ever mounted on Australian soil. They killed or wounded some 354 - or 4 per cent - of the invaders of their country. Tongerlongeter's brilliant campaign inspired terror throughout the colony, forcing Governor George Arthur to launch a massive military operation in 1830 - the infamous Black Line. Tongerlongeter escaped but the cumulative losses had taken their toll. On New Year's Eve 1831, having lost his arm, his country, and all but 25 of his people, the chief agreed to an armistice. In exile on Flinders Island, this revered warrior united most of the remnant tribes and became the settlement's 'King' - a beacon of hope in a hopeless situation.
