Book Description:

For more than fifty years Daisy Bates was Kabbarli (grandmother) to the Australian aborigines whose cause she championed and whose primitive camp grounds she shared. Renouncing husband and child and the narrow provincialism of colonial Australian life, she devoted her inexhaustible energies to caring fora virtually prehistoric people, living alone in an untamed, surrealistically beautiful - and desolate - land. - from the inside flap
