"In the 1830s the British Crown asserted its right of ownership over all the tribal lands which now constitute the State of Victoria. This act of dispossession was the first of many injustices committed against Aborigines in the name of land acquisition. This booklet provides a succint account of the actions taken by governments to assert control over Aboriginal lands and peoples in Victoria."--BOOK COVER
