How Governor Macquarie invented an idea of Australia, a convict built it - and how Britain tried to tear it down.
Luke Slattery is the author of Crisis in the Clever Country: Why Our Universities are Failing (with Geoffrey Maslen), Dating Aphrodite: Modern Adventures in the Ancient World, and Reclaiming Epicurus: Could an Ancient Philosophy of Happiness Save the World?
"A riveting read." --Courier-Mail
"Short and snappy . . . It is exciting to see a writer of
Slattery's quality take on the the extraordinary history of
colonial Australia with such zest and conviction and present it,
properly, as a story with universal human meaning . . . [a] fierce
little book." --Sydney Morning Herald
