The Black War
Fear, Sex and Resistance in Tasmania

Clements, Nicholas
Publisher:  University of Queensland Press
Year Published:  2014  
Resource Type:  Book

Clements' book presents the Black War as a horrifying and brutal guerrilla war of attrition. It not only led to the virtual extermination of the Tasmanian Aborigines, it also took many hundred colonial lives and impacted on every colonial family in Tasmania. Yet unlike the first world war, it is barely recognised today as a major event in Australian history.
