A personal history of an Aboriginal Australian tribe referred to as 'the Blucher tribe' located in the Darling Downs region. Includes an overview of their culture and customs. Two copies are typescripts bound by the Library. One is an original typescript with stiff paper wrappers and some handwritten annotations. One is a roneoed copy. The first of the two bound typescripts has an inscription on the title page near the hinge that reads '1.11.1934 345 1st copy typed in University Office'. The second of the two typescripts has an inscription on the title page near the hinge that reads '345 1.11.1934 duplic[ate] for FWR [Frederick Walter Robinson] 2/6'. The third original typescript copy in stiff paper wrappers, 41 leaves, has a bookplate pasted inside the front wrapper that states it 'belonged to Frederick Walter Robinson'. The fourth copy, 29 pages, looks to be a roneoed typescript that came from the Hayes collection.
