-
"East Coast Encounters 1770, reflections on a cultural clash examines the first recorded contact between the Aboriginal people of Kamay Botany Bay and Europeans. The ten articles in this publication explore an eclectic selection of themes, ranging from Cook's early life, the botanical collecting of Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander to the 'view from the shore', as Aboriginal contributors consider the impact of James Cook's eight-day visit to Kurnell in 1770. In the final article we are transported to north Queensland to consider the interactions of the Endeavour crew with the Guugu Yimithirr people."--Inside front cover.
