Slower postage than other sellers, but it was sent pretty much after ordered. Great condition book. Can't wait to read it. 3 stars on postage. 5 stars for item description and 3 stars on communication as I had zero communication from this seller

Useful view of Aboriginal's acre of the environment
I bought this book to help with coverage of NSW HSC Science courses that cover the Aboriginal usage of the land. It is not a textbook/reference in the conventional sense, but contains a lot of useful information, is mainly well written and has some compelling arguments. I am not sure that the author has a complete grasp of Charles Darwin's work or how it was accepted by the British community when it came out. However, well worth a read to get a fresh viewpoint on how the Australian environment was managed - and perhaps should be in future.I bought this book to help with coverage of NSW HSC Science courses that cover the Aboriginal usage of the land.

This book MUST be read by EVERY resident of Australia.
This book is an absolute MUST for every person living in Australia in particular and for the wider world. I see it as a follow on from Bill Gammage's "The Biggest Estate On Earth" in explaining how the Aboriginal people of Australia farmed and managed the land in a sustainable way for tens of thousands of year - there is no way they could have survived as 'hunters, gathers' for so long as we were told once or twice in our pathetic education of history at school. This book and others on a similar topic MUST be made part of the national curriculum from grade 1 in our schools. For too long we have had Gov/mt control of what we should know about our country, all based on British Empire lies. Read this book and lend it to every one you know, we must learn how to look after our country from ...

Mind blowing content and an easy read.
This book transformed my thinking about the technical sophistication of aboriginal culture prior to the occupation of the country by settlers. The book is an easy read and presents plenty of evidence for the case that Bruce puts forward. This would be a great book to get onto the school curriculum.

A must read for contemporary Australians
Well worth a read if you're interested in Australian, Indigenous or Ancient history. It's a total shame the Australian curriculum doesn't embed this knowledge in the history syllabus so the young people of Australia know more about their own continent. Australia has so much to be proud of - it makes no sense that we turn a blind eye to the history and archaeology presented in this book. This is ancient Australian history told in an accessible manner. Pascoe explains artifacts and early English writings in a way that shines a light on everything which has been largely ignored in contemporary history. This knowledge fills the gaps of our understanding of Indigenous technology and land management. Every Australian should read this.Well worth a read if you're interested in Australian, Indigenous or Ancient history.

A book to re-read and keep on your bookshelf.
Very informative content. Factually based on early Australian explorer and settler written reports. This book has collated information all in one book that you would take you a very long time to find on the internet. Want to learn more about growing and catching indigenous foods then this book is for you.
