Batman's 'treaty' : -the true story
Poulter, Jim2016
Book
There has always been suspicion and scepticism about the Treaty John Batman claims to have made with the Melbourne Aboriginal people. Using a little known eyewitness account by famed Aboriginal Elder William Barak, Batmans outlandish claims and fabrications are at last laid bare in Jim Poulters concise new book.
