title = "Licence to Kill: Massacre Men of Australia's North",
abstract = "Licence to Kill is a forensic account of violent frontier expansion across Australia{\textquoteright}s north with particular emphasis on the Northern Territory. Smith reveals not only the perpetrators of massacres but their benefactors and enablers, both public and private. She demonstrates how colonialism was subtly perpetuated by the conferral of high civic honour on many of the actors, noting that these are embedded as place names across the landscape.",
