When Western Australia was settled from 1829, two cultures collided over territory. Rottnest was used as An Island Solution, a prison for Aboriginal men, for almost a hundred years. This book reveals this hidden story of invasion that needs to be heard. Stringing these yarns tougher is an attempt by one descendant of the settler community to live with the weight of this history
