This is a story of resistance, survival and, ultimately, of triumph. In it James Miller traces the last 200 years of his family tribal history - that of the Wonnarua people of the Hunter River Valley in New South Wales. With pride and sensitivity he illuminates the past of a people who have survived every attempt to destroy them as a separate race and culture. Their experiences, shared by the majority of Koori people throughout Australia, include the initial contact with whites, the frontier slaughter and the spread of introduced disease. More recently, the influence of Christian missionaries and the savage control of the Aborigines' Protection Board, the exclusion of Koori children from government schools and the struggle for land rights have shaped their lives. James Miller reveals racial iniquities seldom parallelled in other nations. Yet he does so not to apportion blame but to confront Australia's past and draw lessons from it. This poignant and highly personal account, which has been awarded the Angus & Robertson Writers' Fellowship, will stir every reader to a more honest appraisal of that past.

Here are the stories. I changed every word. Make of them as you will.UnAmerican Activities explores the conspiracy theories and violence of modern America through a series of interlocking stories told by deranged and desperate narrators. Populated by meth addicts, vampire hunters, porn stars, fanatical evangelists, disgraced academics and zombified hipsters, James Miller's third novel is a crazy homage to American pop culture and genre fiction and an unforgettable road trip through the dark heart of the United States."The weirdness of deep America fascinates James Miller and in this, his third book, he wades into the fever-swamp. What he dredges up is not decorous, but how can decorum get the measure of a nation whose paranoid fantasies are creating the very dystopia that it fears and secretly craves UnAmerican Activities is compelling, appalling and deeply entertaining a sequence of dispatches from the sulphurous rim of the Moronic Inferno." -- Gregory Norminton, author of The Ghost Who Bled and The Devil's Highway"A deliriously enjoyable book raw and wild and kinetic as a thriller. Here is an America racked by its End Times: a place of porn stars and vampires, fanatical priests and priapic zombies. It's dark as hell. It's alarmingly familiar. It's very very funny indeed." -- Tom Bullough, author of Addlands and Konstantin"These brilliantly imaginative and highly readable stories evoke a fraying, febrile America populated with messianic porn stars, heavily-armed survivalists, and millenarian sects, all craving an Apocalypse that may or may not come..." -- Rob Doyle, author of Here Are the Young Men and This is the Ritual
