A History of the Dispossession of the Mairremmener People of Van Diemen’s Land 1803-1832

“This is the story of the Mairremmener people, better known as the Oyster Bay Tribe and the Big River Tribe, but by reason of a common language and a single culture, one group, one people.

Dr Calder traces their history from prehistory, through the arrival of white people on to their organised resistance against the invaders of their land and their eventual capitulation”.
