The Story of the Blacks

This is a historical book that tells the story of the black race in Australia. It explores the unequal struggle between the white man and his coloured brother. In dealing with this subject in this book, the author has aimed to place before the reader a simple narrative of facts that illustrates the condition into which Australian blacks were brought by their contact with the white man after possession of the land taken by Governor Phillip and the motley crowd that crossed the sea from England with him to form a British settlement on Australian shore.
