The law of the land  Cover Image Book Book

The law of the land / Henry Reynolds.

Summary:

"In this readable and dramatic book, Henry Reynolds reassesses the legal and political arguments used to justify the European settlement of Australia. His conclusions form a compelling case for the belief that the British government conceded land rights to the Aborigines early in the nineteenth century." -- Back jacket.
