‘Savages: A Truth Telling’ is a novel written by Steve Trotter and it is the third in a series of novels that explores the impact of the invasion of Australia by the British Empire. This book provides a fresh perspective on Australian colonial history by recounting the settling of Australia through the eyes of the Aboriginal people. No punches are pulled. The series celebrates what was and what was taken in a very methodical and brutal manner. The book series is already getting a great response from readers. To publish this book worldwide, the author has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter, and he is welcoming generous community support and backing.
“This series celebrates Australia’s Indigenous people and their culture and challenges the explorers’ accounts that they were a primitive and hostile nomadic people,” said Steve Trotter, while introducing this project to the Kickstarter community. “I hope that these books can help the Reconciliation process in Australia through a truth telling of our shared past together,” he added. The Australian author has sold and donated over a thousand copies of the first book in the series titled, ‘The Magpie and the Snake’, and hopes to do the same with ‘Savages’ the last book in the series.
The Kickstarter Campaign is located on the web at:
www.kickstarter.com/projects/1902875387/savages-a-truth-telling. Backers from around the globe can become a part of this project by making generous pledges and donations. Moreover, the goal of this Kickstarter campaign is to raise a sum of AU$ 9,000 and the author is offering several great rewards including signed copies of the book for the backers with worldwide shipping. More details are available on the Kickstarter campaign project page.
