About this book
Joe Alimindjin Rootsey was one of Queensland's first indigenous people to be recognised as a contemporary artist. An inveterate sketcher, his artistic leanings were discovered by medical social worker Joan Innes Reid during a period of hospitalisation in north Queensland in the mid 1950s.
