While Patrick Dodson's bearded image is well known, the remarkable history of this outstanding Aboriginal leader has never before been told. In Paddy's Road, Kevin Keeffe brings us stories of Dodson's life woven from interviews, government archives and family stories. This source material and Keeffe's social and political analysis uniquely describe the life and the political, cultural and spiritual beliefs of Australia's first Aboriginal Catholic priest who was also a land rights activist, Royal Commissioner and founder of Australia's reconciliation movement.
