Over dit audioboek
This is the story of one of Australia's first true heroes Pemulwuy. A proud and feared Aboriginal warrior Pemulwuy leads an uncompromising twelve-year war against British colonial oppression and makes the supreme sacrifice in order to guide his people to safety.
Most histories of Australia start with the First Fleet and the hard times the colonists had with the climate and unruly convicts. Very few mention what really happened or the blood that was spilled in the wars never spoken of.
Pemulwuy a Bidjigal man unites the neighbouring peoples runaway convicts bushrangers and an escaped African known as Black Caesar in a guerilla war that pushes the invading English to the brink. This novel was conceived out of Pemulwuy's legend and the historical events between 1788 and 1802. It is a story that all Australians should know.
'This is more than a novel, more than a story, it is the Big Bang: where the idea of Australia starts.' Stan Grant
