Annals of Vandalism at the British Library: A necrology. The British Library policy from its inception hadinvariantly stripped all cover matter from every volume it accessioned. As a result, almost nohardbound book accessioned by the Library after the middle of the nineteenth centurywas in fact presentable in a visual context: no dust-jacket artwork survived to brightenthe theatre of the book; no flap copy to articulate the rituals of expectation and entrythat coded successive unveilings of this transgressive literature.

Aliens & Savages is a hands-on historical record of the racism that underpins Australia's growth as a nation. First published twenty-five years ago, this new and revised edition asks: what has changed? As we approach the referendum on an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice to Parliament, Aliens & Savages is still the only publication of its kind - a survey of racism and xenophobia in Australian popular writings before the advent of social media. It is a collection of fiction and non-fiction, of personal narratives and official reports, of diaries and media misinformation. In it, you can hear the unguarded voices of the colonists, the squatters, the politicians; you can see the close relationship between the popular press and the prejudices of its readers.
