More about the book

The life of Thomas Wentworth Wills unfolds as a tale of ambition and cultural significance, highlighting his role in transforming colonial cricket and laying the groundwork for Australian football. Raised among the Djabwurring people, Wills' journey took him to England, where he later returned to coach the first Aboriginal cricket team to tour there. His contributions were overshadowed by personal struggles and the broader conflict between settlers and Aboriginal people. Ultimately, his story is one of tragedy intertwined with a lasting legacy for Australia.
