Publisher's Synopsis

Examining the situation of Aboriginal women who lived on the Catholic missions of Beagle Bay and Kalumburu in the North-West of Australia, the author draws on both oral history and archival sources to explore the effects of European colonisation, and the politics of race, gender and class in the colonising process.
