註釋

John Bulmer spent forty years of his life as missionary to Aboriginal people in Victoria. In 1855 he devoted his activities to communities on the Murray, but most of his life was spent at Lake Tyers where he established a Church of England mission in 1862. In his later years he wrote a series of thirteen papers in which he recorded his observations on the life and times of the people to whom he ministered. Over a period of several years Alastair Campbell transliterated these manuscripts, held in the archives of Museum Victoria. Bulmera s writings are complemented with black and white photographs of the people he worked with, as well as images of cultural artefacts such as spear throwers, necklaces and fishing nets.
