William Buckley was an escaped English convict who lived for 32 years among the Wathaurong people of southeastern Australia, assimilating into Aboriginal culture and surviving in the wilds of Victoria. Morgan, recognizing the value of Buckley’s unique story, recorded it in vivid detail upon the former convict’s reintegration into colonial society. The book blends ethnographic observation with personal memoir, offering one of the earliest sustained European descriptions of Aboriginal life from a sympathetic insider perspective. While questions remain about the precise accuracy of certain details, Morgan’s role in preserving Buckley’s extraordinary tale has ensured that it remains a foundational text in the early literature of settler-colonial Australia and in the broader understanding of Indigenous-settler relations.voir moins
