In 1894, Jandamarra, a young Aboriginal man who had lived among whites, led the Bunuba people in a rebellion (which would last for over two years) against the white settlers on the Western Australian frontier. Pedersen (affiliation not cited) analyzes historical sources such as police and newspaper accounts in conjunction with Banjo Woorunmurra's and other Bunuba people's oral histories, which contain information on atrocities committed by whites not mentioned by the victors. This reprint of the 1995 edition includes numerous bandw and color photographs. Distributed in the U.S. by ISBS. c. Book News Inc.

This book explores the ways in which Australian Indigenous filmmakers, performers and writers work within their Indigenous communities to tell the stories of early Indigenous resistance leaders who fought against British invaders and settlers, thus keeping their legacies alive and connected to community in the present. It offers the first comprehensive and trans-disciplinary analysis of how the stories of Pemulwuy, Jandamarra and Yagan (Bidjigal, Bunuba and Noongar freedom fighters, respectively) have been retold in the past forty years across different media. Combining textual and historical analysis with original interviews with Indigenous cultural producers, it foregrounds the multimodal nature of Indigenous storytelling and the dynamic relationship of these stories to reclamations of sovereignty in the present. It adds a significant new chapter to the study of Indigenous history-making as political action, while modelling a new approach to stories of frontier resistance leaders and providing a greater understanding of how the decolonizing power of Indigenous screen, stage and text production connects past, present and future acts of resistance.
