This is the first historical study of indigenous Australian masculinity. Using the reactions of eighteenth-century western explorers to Aboriginal men, Konishi argues that these encounters were not as negative as has been thought.
'provides a thought-provoking and useful reference point for established and emerging scholars alike, and could be put to good use by academics lecturing or supervising research projects in Australian contact history.' History Australia 'This persuasive and well-researched argument carries important implications for the subsequent history of contact between Europeans and Aborigines, and opens up exciting and new avenues of research.' Judging Panel shortlisting for The NSW Premier's History Awards 2013 'this excellently researched and written book adds greatly to our understanding of first exchanges between Aboriginal and European men in eighteenth-century Australia' Australian Historical Studies
