AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A response to Windschuttle's criticism about the writings on Mosquito is presented. It is argued that Windschuttle in his criticism has failed to identify the Mosquito that is actually spoken about and it is said that historian's work revolves around interpreting the evidence, which lead to such different understandings.

Guerrilla Warrior and Resistance Fighter?: The Career of Musquito Keith Windschuttle , 2004 single work criticism
— Appears in: Labour History , no. 87 2004; (p. 221-235) A debate on the substantial historical issue of the response of Aboriginals to British colonization with guerrilla warfare or wars of resistance, with specific focus on the Sydney Aborigine named Musquito, is addressed. It is argued that Musquito cannot be described as a guerilla warrior or resistance fighter as their actions did not involve attacks on British troops or assaults on settlers and stockmen, other than with an aim of robbery.
