Competing histories form and transform the lands, peoples and nations of Oceania, from the Pacific Islands, New Guinea and Aotearoa\/New Zealand to Australia. In nations impacted by colonialism, such questions are particularly pertinent. First Nations peoples have long made history, living on their Country far longer than the colonial invaders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Deep History: Country and Sovereignty, edited by Ann McGrath and Jackie Huggins, leading historians and thinkers explore Indigenous histories of caring for places and people over millennia. With contributions from Brenda L. Croft, Anna Clark, Lynette Russell and many more, Deep History considers how stories of the past and the future are inscribed on land, waterways and skies. Walking on Country, gardening and agriculture and rock art are historical practices that continue to play an important role in asserting sovereign rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile colonial powers crafted historical narratives of entitlement, First Nations people continue to perform deep histories of sovereignty. Deep History offers readers an invitation to walk the Country, to see how it reveals the most crucial of all histories for the planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e'A powerful collection of connections to history, Country, and culture.' - Terri Janke.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ann McGrath\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1761170309\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781761170300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e UNSW Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.02w x 0.70d","brand":"Ann McGrath","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47135573082367,"sku":"9781761170300","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e951d069-0bfe-42eb-8213-6493a97ce43b.jpg?v=1755010547","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/deep-history-ann-mcgrath-9781761170300","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
