This is the second book by Indigenous Elder, Uncle Albert Holt. The book tells the story of Uncle's life - of his family's forced removal to a life of poverty and hardship on Aboriginal missions in South East Queensland, to??the present, woven with anecdotes of significant events along the way. Uncle Albert's??natural ability as a storyteller makes Murri on a Mission - Gunnan Gunnan a very easy book to read, with it's regular references to 'blackfella humor', but also an important book for anyone who desires??an honest, first hand look through the window into the lives that many of our Indigenous Australians have had to endure. Uncle is now retired after a lifetime of working for his family, and for the betterment of ??Indigenous youth in general, as he became involved in the development and expansion of the Murri Courts in Queensland. Uncle Albert Holt is a respected Aboriginal Elder, who in his seventh decade of life has not slowed down in his mission to ??facilitate a better future for the indigenous youth who follow him.
