Acknowledgments
There are many people who have helped with the compilation of this book. Sandra Saunders was by Doreens side from the tabling of the envelopes, and then stood alongside both Doreen and me to help get her story right. Sandy also became a friend of mine, and I am grateful for her valuable commentary on early and later drafts of this book. Her input was invaluable and her friendship immeasurable.
Doreens sister Doris recommended me to Doreen in the first instance, and remains a dear friend since I interviewed her for the Bringing Them Home Oral History Project in 2000. Doreens family, particularly Lydia and Willie, put up with my many intrusions into their space, and Klynton read and commented on the draft manuscript and helped make some changes.
Dr Mary-Anne Gale provided advice on Ngarrindjeri language words, and Ribnga Green and Jared Thomas, in their roles with Tandanya National Cultural Institute and Arts SA respectively, gave their support and encouragement. Carolyn Blanks conducted some last-minute archival retrieval at short notice, and Kate Battersby transcribed about half the recordings with great promptness and efficiency. My friend and colleague Dr Suzi Hutchings commented on the draft manuscript and helped me reduce the word length as requested by our publishers. Joanna Richardson and Claire OConnor kindly read the draft manuscript and provided vital legal advice. My PhD supervisor, Dr Christine Nicholls, also provided much moral support and some editorial advice. Doreens friend and colleague Jackie Huggins introduced us to Aboriginal Studies Press, and Rhonda Black, its Director, was considerate in dealing with the appraisal of the manuscript. Many others lent their support, advice and research materials, including Dr Rod Lucas, Dr Deane Fergie, Steve Hemming, Professor Diane Bell, Neva Wilson, Dr Joy Wundersitz and Margaret Wallace.
We could not have conducted our work without some financial help, as Doreen lived at Point Pearce on the Yorke Peninsula and I live in Adelaide, some two and a half to three hours away by car. I am therefore extremely grateful for the grant funding we received from the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies, Arts SA Picture 3and The Hon. Stephanie Key MP, then South
Australian Minister for Social Justice and for the Status of Women.

Note on Language
Ngarrindjeri words are often used alongside English ones, and these have been retained in the text. Where a word only occurs once or twice, an English translation has been added in square brackets. Some Ngarrindjeri words, however, are used throughout.
Family relationships are often referred to in Ngarrindjeri terms. Mainu is grandfather, Mutha is grandmother, and Pike is great-uncle. The word Kabbarli, which refers to an older female relative, came from a language of the west coast of South Australia, and is a specific kin term.
The English words Aunty and Uncle are used both to refer to relatives and as respectful titles for older community members. Grannies are grandchildren, not grandparents.
