What Katie Did

Katie Langloh Parker was a white woman who notated the Aboriginal language Euahlayi  and collected the Legends from the Noongahburrahs in the later decades of the 19th century. But her publication of the Noongahburrah Legends is controversial. There have been both critical and supportive critiques of her work, but little on the woman herself who accomplished something extraordinary as a 19th century squatter’s wife in the outback.
