Has anyone written Australian history from the perspective of the original inhabitants - the aborigines?

Doing some research, the only Aboriginal writer I could find who has written about Aboriginal History (Capital H Western-style history that is) is Bruce Pascoe, in his book on pre-colonial Aboriginal agriculture Dark Emu; admittedly it appears that the book uses evidence from records and journals of early Colonial explorers so this may rule it out for you.
However if you're looking for more traditional histories from Aboriginal peoples (that we in the west would call pseudo-histories), then I believe Burnum Burnum's Burnum Burnum's Aboriginal Australia: a traveller's guide somewhat covers this (He's also the guy who planted the aboriginal flag in Dover).
