Lucas Jordan grew up in Burekup in Western Australia and took his Bachelor of Arts at the University of Western Australia, majoring in History and Political Science. Lucas completed a Bachelor of Education at the University of Queensland followed by a Masters in Aboriginal Studies, University of Notre Dame. This led to over a decade of teaching and research in the Kimberley, Cape York and central Australia, and ingrained in him a deep respect for the Australian bush and its people. Lucas worked for Amnesty International as a researcher and fieldworker and co-wrote Amnesty's global report ' The land holds us - Aboriginal peoples' right to their traditional homelands in the Northern Territory'. This was based on three years of collaboration and camping with the Alyawarr and Anmatyerr people of the Northern Territory. Lucas is currently a history teacher at Western English Language School, a secondary school for new arrivals and refugees in Melbourne. Stealth Raiders is his first book and is adapted from his PhD thesis, supervised by award winning historians Professor Bill Gammage (ANU) and Dr Peter Stanley (UNSW). Lucas lives in Lara, Victoria, with his wife and two sons and is most at home when surfing and fossicking around the rocks with his sons and going bush.
