The Years of Terror: Banbu-deen. Kulin and Colonists at Port Phillip, 1835-1851’

Join respected Boonwurrung Elder, Fay Stewart Muir, OAM and historian, Dr Marguerita Stephens as they share their experience of collaborating across cultures to create this detailed and ground-breaking history of the impact of the British invasion on the Boonwurrung people of the Mornington Peninsula.  

‘This book is a timely reminder of the harrowing years of the early colonial period, the ‘years of terror’ when Kulin livelihoods were all but destroyed by the British invasion, and the violence, disease and neglect which accompanied it’ [Sam Furphy, Australian Historical Studies, July 2024].
