In the 200 or so years since European settlement of Australia, the way of life of Australia's traditional owners has changed forever. Four aspects of Aboriginal life have been most affected: family life, land rights, self-government and access to sacred sites and freedom of cultural expression. This book tells the story of Aboriginal land rights - then and now. It gives information of traditional Aboriginal concepts of land and the care of the land, Land wars that occurred, years on the reserves and missions and the struggle of Aboriginal people to reclaim their lands.
