Customer Reviews

Sociological

This book gives an interpretation first hand of what life for the aboriginies was like under the pressure of white society. Also, it tells its readers about the Aboriginies' explainations for how the world was created and what different things like the Southern Cross are. Have some respect.

This book was very informative yet interesting

I didn't like how it was so vivid in discribing the rituals of the dreamtime it was not for weak tummies.
