In 1788 the Aborigines of the Blue Mountains had had no contact with Europeans: within 30 years their traditional way of life had been irrevocably changed. Of the generations of new Mountains dwellers who followed, few appreciated the Aboriginal heritage of the region, even though evidence of their presence was known from the Nepean River and the adjacent escarpment. Increasingly however, widespread discoveries of art sites, occupation sites, stone tools, axe-grinding grooves and stone arrangements, research into the journals and early writings of European explorers and settlers, and the compilation of oral histories, are providing a rich, if incomplete, account of the traditional lifestyles and environment of the Gundungurra and Darug people. This greatly expanded second edition gathers together new information about the original inhabitants of the Blue Mountains and provides a fascinating account of histories, languages, legends and European contact. 9780646503868.

Quarto; paperback; 256pp., with maps and many monochrome and full-colour illustrations. New. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. People have inhabited Australia for thousands of years. At the foot of the Blue Mountains, New South Wales, human occupation is dated at up to 50,000 years ago. In 1788, the way of life for Aboriginal people living in the Mountains irrevocably changed. However, their cultural heritage, handed down from ancient generations, has remained in the form of occupation sites, art, artefacts, axe-grinding grooves, scarred trees, stone arrangements and other physical traces of their presence in the landscape. "Aboriginal Heritage of the Blue Mountains" gathers together some new research, stories and reflections about the Mountains' Aboriginal inhabitants and their heritage, perhaps what could now be understood as Australia's shared heritage. 9780994155580.

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. 27 pages. First separate printing. In printed blue wraps. Small chip to bottom right corner of cover and first page, tape repairs to reverse side of front cover, but altogether a very good copy of a rare item. SIGNED and inscribed on the front cover: "Compliments of / M. D. Mann." Matthew D. Mann (1844-1921) was one of the physicians who attended President William McKinley after he was shot by Leon Czolgosz at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, in 1901. There were five doctors available and Mann, a gynecologist, took the lead in bringing McKinley to his house and operating on him. Mann decided to leave the bullet in the body and also did not clean the wound. From that infection, McKinley died on September 13, 1901, a week after he was shot. Later, Mann was called on to give reports of McKinley's last words. The U.S. Congress authorized the payment of $10,000 to Doctor Mann in 1902 for his efforts to save the life of the President.
