This book explores the experiences of Indigenous Australians who participated in Australian exploration enterprises in the early nineteenth century. These Indigenous travellers, often referred to as guides, native aides, or intermediaries have already been cast in a variety of ways by historians: earlier historiographies represented them as passive side-players in European heroic efforts of Discovery, while scholarship in the 1980s, led by Henry Reynolds, re-cast these individuals as black pioneers. Historians now acknowledge that Aborigines provided information about the customs and languages of contiguous tribes, and acted as diplomats and couriers arranging in advance for the safe passage of European parties. More recently, Indigenous scholars Keith Vincent Smith and Lynnette Russell describe such Aboriginal travellers as being entrepreneurial agents of their own destiny. While historiography has made up some ground in this area Aboriginal motivations in exploring parties, while difficult to discern, are often obscured or ignored under the title guide or intermediary. Despite the different ways in which they have been cast, the mobility of these travellers, their motivations for travel and experience of it have not been thoroughly analysed. Some recent studies have begun to open up this narrative, revealing instead the ways in which colonisation enabled and encouraged entrepreneurial mobility, bringing about new patterns of mobility for colonised peoples.

Praise forMeeting the Waylo
In this book, Tiffany Shellam presents a new perspective on the history of encounters between British explorers and Aboriginal people in north-west Australia. Through a series of deftly written and engaging case studies, she uncovers multiple stories of Indigenous agency, drawing on a wide variety of archival, visual, oral and material evidence. In her handling of the colonial archive and her alertness to the politics of historical memory, she offers a model for other historians to follow.
Professor Felix Driver, Royal Holloway, University of London
This is a subtle and exhilarating exploration of key cross-cultural encounters in early colonial Australia. In bringing the past to life, Tiffany Shellam also analyses the surviving evidence with delicacy, insight and compassion. Thus the archive becomes a vital part of her story and we feel engaged in the magic of researching and writing history.
Professor Tom Griffiths, Australian National University
Associate Professor Tiffany Shellam lectures in History at Deakin University. She works collaboratively with Noongar people and historians, museum curators, archivists and librarians to critique the archives, unearthing hidden and alternative histories generated by encounters between Indigenous people and European explorers and settlers in the early nineteenth century. Her book Shaking Hands on the Fringe: Negotiating the Aboriginal World at King Georges Sound was published by UWA Publishing in 2009.
The Charles and Joy Staples South West Region Publications Fund was established in 1984 on the basis of a generous donation to The University of Western Australia by Charles and Joy Staples.
The purpose of the Fund is to highlight all aspects of the South West region of Western Australia, a geographical area much loved by Charles and Joy Staples, so as to assist the people of the South West region and those in government and private organisations concerned with South West projects to appreciate the needs and possibilities of the region in the widest possible historical perspective. The fund is administered by a committee whose aims are to make possible the publication by UWA Publishing of research and writing in any discipline relevant to the South West region.
