This historical biography chronicles the life of Angus McMillan, a pivotal figure in the European settlement of Gippsland, Victoria. Kenneth Cox presents McMillan’s journey from his Scottish origins to his role as a frontier explorer, pastoralist, and government-appointed Protector of Aborigines. The book illustrates the expansionist drive of colonial Australia while confronting the complex and often violent legacy of McMillan’s interactions with Indigenous communities. It details his expeditions through rugged terrain, his establishment of key settlements, and his influence on regional development. Cox argues for McMillan’s significance as both a nation-builder and a controversial agent of empire.
