A Man of All Tribes: The Life of Alick Jackomos
Author(s): Richard Broome
The son of Greek migrant parents, Jackomos was born in Collingwood and grew up in the Great Depression, mixing with people from a range of backgrounds. Loved by many, Jackomos' life was not without controversy as he was a non-Aboriginal man, with an Aboriginal family, living and moving in an Aboriginal world and working for Aboriginal causes.
