1 [Review Essay] Aboriginal Australians : Black Response to White Dominance 1788-1980 Jane Pettman , 1984 single work essay
— Appears in: Australian Aboriginal Studies , no. 1 1984; (p. 77-78)

'This is Allen and Unwin's fourth book in 'The Australian Experience' series. It aims to overcome the distortion and marginality of Aborigines in white Australia's history and psyche. It is, Broome states, 'an attempt by an Australian of European descent to help put the record straight'. It recognises that most Australians are appallingly ignorant, not only about Aborigines but also about their own history and society.' (Introduction)
