520 The Sydney Wars tells the history of military engagements
between Europeans and Aboriginal Australians -- described
as 'this constant sort of war' by one early colonist --
around the greater Sydney region. Telling the story of the
first years of colonial Sydney in a new and original way,
this provocative book is the first detailed account of the
warfare that occurred across the Sydney region from the
arrival of a British expedition in 1788 to the last
recorded conflict in the area in 1817. The Sydney Wars
sheds new light on how British and Aboriginal forces
developed military tactics and how the violence played
out. Analysing the paramilitary roles of settlers and
convicts and the militia defensive systems that were
deployed, it shows that white settlers lived in fear,
while Indigenous people fought back as their land and
resources were taken away. Stephen Gapps details the
violent conflict that formed part of a long period of
colonial strategic efforts to secure the Sydney basin and,
in time, the rest of the continent.
