— Review of Orphaned by the Colour of My Skin : A Stolen Generation Story 2007 single work autobiography'This is a book that surprised me in the way that it gripped my attention. After some decades of Aboriginal biography and autobiography, many of which are concerned with removal fromfamily, one could be excused for thinking that there is not much that has not already been told.While every individual’s story is important and deeply personal to them and their kin, this book isinnovative and I venture to say groundbreaking in terms of the methodological approach of thewriter Mary Terszak. It is also very good story telling by an engaging and attractive personality.' (Introduction)
