AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'This is a study of persons who were labelled rebels and radicals in their own time. The first two of the twelve essays are about Aborigines. Christine Wise, from the Australian National University, has written a very short piece on Mosquito, who was classed as a renegade and murderer in Tasmania and hung in February 1825. Bruce Shaw, from Darwin Community College, writes on Major who fought the settlers in the Ord River district of Western Australia until he was shot down by police in 1908.'  (Introduction)

    This is my first issue as General Editor, taking the place of Eric Willmot who, as most readers of the journal will know, left the Institute in August and moved to the Department of Aboriginal Affairs.

    In this issue we introduce a new feature called 'Resources', the aim of which is to bring to your attention some of the materials held in the Institute's collections. Each item will also, we hope, be of interest in its own right. The first is an unpublished manuscript by Robert Etheridge. We would like to have your reactions to this feature—in particular, we need suggestions as to material which might be included in future issues. If you know of interesting manuscript, photographic or sound material which we hold and which could be useful if published, please let us know.' (Editorial introduction)
