Uprising

War in the colony of New South Wales, 1838-1844

About this book

A landmark account of the Australian Wars and Indigenous resistance in the 19th century.

Stephen Gapps' Uprising reveals the incredible story of the extensive frontier resistance warfare that occurred along the Murray-Darling river system between 1838 and 1844. Challenging conventional narratives, this essential history sheds light on a concerted defence of River Country by First Nations against colonial expansion.

For readers seeking a deeper understanding of Australian history, Uprising unearths the truth about:

  • Aboriginal warriors' coordinated military counteroffensive
  • The impact of colonial violence on Indigenous communities
  • The ongoing struggle for truth-telling and reconciliation
At a time when we need to think deeply about how the past impacts our future, Uprising is essential reading.
