This government-issued research aid presents a detailed survey of Aboriginal reserves across New South Wales, compiled to support land rights investigations and policy reform. Authored by A. McGuigan for the NSW Ministry of Aboriginal Affairs, the report documents reserve locations, administrative histories, and legal designations, offering a foundational reference for scholars, activists, and legal professionals engaged in Indigenous land claims. It argues for the recognition of historical occupancy and institutional neglect, illustrating how reserve boundaries and governance shaped Aboriginal access to land and resources. The publication serves as both a technical guide and a political instrument, reinforcing the need for restitution and informed advocacy. Concise, data-driven, and historically grounded, it remains a critical tool in the study of Aboriginal land tenure in southeastern Australia.
