A landmark illustrated history of Australia that accompanies the series broadcast on SBS TV. Beginning with Aboriginal travellers landing on Australian shores around 70,000 BC the book and series chronicles the violent clash of culture, religion and ideas at the heart of Australia's history. Drawing on a rich collection of historic documents and images, it brings to life a cast of characters who shaped the interaction between Aboriginals and Europeans including Bennelong, Jandamarra, Truganini and Barak who fought so hard for the lands at Coranderrk.
