Tony Robinson's History Of Australia: From New Holland To Neighbours

Synopsis

Tony Robinson is an entertaining storyteller with a passion for history, exhibiting a special fondness for the quirkier tale and the oddball character. To read the history of Australia reflected in his charming, curious and incontrovertibly English eyes is a delight. His observations on events such as the Eureka Stockade and Burke and Wills' demise breathe life into well-known history, while in between he relates lesser-known tales such as the First Fleet's Founding Orgy or how the first shots in both World Wars were fired in Port Phillip Bay. From the founding colony to the Stolen Generations Apology, Robinson traces the birth and development of our nation with irresistible enthusiasm. The book is illustrated with historical images as well as beautiful photographs of Robinson travelling around the country, making the companion TV series Tony Robertson Explores Australia for The History Channel.
