Canberra : National Museum of Australia, 2010. Quarto, cards in dustjacket, pp. [xx]; 230, illustrated. The Aboriginal people of Australias Western Desert lived in their homelands for thousands of years. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the expansion of the Western Australian mining and pastoral industries led to the surveying of a track along which cattle could be driven from Kimberley stations to markets in the south. Yiwarra Kuju: The Canning Stock Route features stories and stunning artworks from senior and emerging Aboriginal artists and traditional custodians who returned to their Country in Australia’s Western Desert.
