Australian Journal of Politics and History

‘Clements offers fresh perspectives on frontier conflict in Tasmania’

Henry Reynolds

historian

‘Clements has written a book that, while reflecting upon the history wars, has transcended their angry contention and has, consequently, brought them to an end. In itself that is a remarkable achievement.’

Cooma-Monaro Express

‘The Black War is not just good history writing, it is eminently even-handed, clear sighted, and readable.’
