WEST AUSTRALIANA / Aboriginal
“All That Big Wongie” is Aboriginal for ” All That Big Talk”. The Aboriginals’ gradual integration with the whites, together with notes, stories, legends, the spearing of George Layman and a short list of Aboriginal words for animals, bird, reptiles, plants and towns, etc, make fascinating reading. As a bush trained naturalist, the author also relates a few of his interesting observations and notes about wildlife and “thing” about our wonderful bush. He concludes with recipes to make a damper and billy tea, a couple of bush poems and story as you sit around the camp fire or relax at home. Signed by Author.
