Born under a warrimba tree on Mt Anderson sheep station in 1933, Lucy Marshall has lived a large part of Western Australia’s recent history. In Reflections Lucy reminisces about her growing up days and a time when the lives of people classed as Aborigines ‘under the Act’ were highly regulated by government authorities and their representatives.
