"Willoughby City Council is fortunate to have a rich history of Aboriginal culture and heritage. The areas around Middle Harbour and Lane Cove River contain invaluable remnants of an ancient culture. This book presents an Aboriginal history of Willoughby from Creation prehistory, early contacts through to the present day. The publication also contains some fictional short stories, to help the reader see situations through the eyes of the Aboriginal people. The publication also includes quotes from Aboriginal women obtained through interviews for the purpose of inclusion in this project."--Provided by publisher.
