Book boards clean. over-all a great and neat copy for it age. They live in the shadows of the white man's world, the Pitjantatjara and Yankunjatjara people people of Western Desert. We took their hunting grounds, the women and children; now - through an outrageous interpretation of offical policy - we seek to embalm a living culture for commerical gain. The people are reassured that 'Government' is help them 'to protect their law and sacred sites' - but no one has thought to ask 'For whom?" Cave Hill in South Australia is about to join Ayres Rock and a string of desecrated sites over which tourist heedlessly tramp. Only public protest can prevent further outrages. Kill Me Softly is the cry of the spiritually dispossed. It says for the Desert People what Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee said for the American Indian. It also provides a lucid description of Aboriginal philosophy - and a devastating account of the systematic destruction of a life syyle and spiritual heritage. Phyl and Noel Wallace spend several months each year with the Pitjantjatjara people as researchers for the Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies, Canberra, of which they are associate members. They are the authors of Children of the Desert. Rare a scarce book.

Quarto, hardcover (slick, full-color photo. illus. boards), full-color photo. illus. endpapers, 61 pp. Illustrated with numerous photographs. Fine (as New); in a Near-Fine dust jacket with former-owner's neatly inked notation to flap. From dust jacket: This new revised edition of Children of the desert has been published in response to the many people who have written to the Wallaces from all over the world asking what has happened to the children of the Desert People since the book was first published.Children of the Desert is an apt description of the children of the Pitjantjatjara people, for this tribe still live their nomadic lives in the heart of Australia, their only contact with the white man or the white man's civilisation being the missionaries, the welfare officers and the passing anthropologist. Through this book Phyl and Noel Wallace share with us their discoveries about these Aboriginals and, more especially, their children. Although Noel Wallace's very fine photographs make the first impact, the text is as skilful and as illuminating. In a series of anecdotes Phyl brings these children to life.
