A major collection of the Jindyworobak poets: Rex Ingamells, Ian Mudie, Flexmore Hudson, William Hart-Smith and Roland Robinson, together with works by many other poets, such as Max Harris and Judith Wright, who they published in their mid- century anthologies. Kiernan’s introduction offers a pioneering appraisal of the movement’s appropriation of Indigenous culture to build a national culture, their influence and legacy.
