Synopsis

Before Australia had cities, borders, or the name Australia, it had Country.First Peoples of Australia is a powerful and respectful journey through one of the oldest continuing human stories on Earth. From deep-time evidence of early human life to the living cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today, this book explores more than 65,000 years of survival, knowledge, family, language, land, resistance, and renewal.Written for general readers, students, and history lovers, this book follows Australia’s story from ancient landscapes, Country, kinship, law, food, fire, trade, art, astronomy, and Torres Strait Islander worlds to the painful history of colonisation, frontier violence, missions, reserves, the Stolen Generations, land rights, Mabo, Native Title, the National Apology, Closing the Gap, the Uluru Statement from the Heart, and modern truth-telling.This is not a book about a vanished past. It is a book about living cultures, continuing connection, deep knowledge, survival through injustice, and the ongoing strength of First Nations Australians.Respectful, educational, and carefully written, First Peoples of Australia invites readers to understand Australia’s history with honesty, humility, and care.
