Coleen Shirley Perry Smith - AM,MBE (1924-1998) and better known as MumShirl - tells the story of her life with vigour and clarity. She was born on Erambie Mission in Cowra and lived and worked in Sydney for most of her life. She combines great insight into human nature with sympathy for human frailty and a sense of humour. Her life as an Aboriginal activist and social worker has been full of contrasts. ' We couldn't get served in crummy places in Sydney - but we could have lunch with the Queen'. MumShirl is the story of one woman's place in Australian history; a woman who made history. Written with the assistance of Bobbi Sykes.
