Summary
In 1883 pastoralists began to drive great herds of cattle into Victoria River District of Australia's Northern Territory. They entered a vast tropical land of big rivers, wide plains, and rugged ranges. It was a cattleman's paradise, but also a paradise for the Aboriginal people who had lived there for thousands of years
