A unique exploration into Indigenous ways of knowing, being and relating, with an in-depth focus on kinship systems and how their cyclical nature foiled attempts by missionaries to destroy them.

The Eagle and the Crow is a deeply profound work of Gamilaraay knowledge and research that is part instruction manual and part philosophical text. Written as a series of lyric essays, JM Field's book ranges from Gamilaraay conceptions of time and place, and relationships to knowledge, to the form and practical functions of kinship systems, appealing to fascinating insights from genetics and mathematics as the key to the revival and preservation of traditional Gamilaraay kinship systems.

All up, it is a love letter to current and future Gamilaraay people - a wholehearted attempt to rejuvenate a kinship system that was prohibited during the Missionary Era. To the non-Gamilaraay reader, it provides a window into alternative ways of relating and being in an increasingly confusing world.
