BiographyHistory

Mokarm was used as a tracker by police in the Northern Territory during his youth. Upon reflection, Mokarm believed the work of Aboriginal trackers was never recognised in newspapers and the credit for their accomplishments always went to policemen. Mokarm discusses this with William E. Harney (q.v.) in Tales from the Aborigines.
