Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. Foreword by Mary Durack. Small soil mark on foredge, light bumping at the crown, near fine in a very good or better dust jacket with light rubbing, and a short tear on the rear panel. Long considered the first novel written by an Australian Aborigine, Johnson became a dominant figure in Aboriginal literature. However, an article in 1996 revealed that, perhaps unbeknownst to the author, he was probably not an Aborigine at all (according to the article his mother was Irish-English and his father was African-Irish). Author's first novel.
