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.

From the founding colony to the Stolen Generations Apology, Robinson traces the birth and development of Australia with irresistable 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 Robinson Explores Australia for The History Channel.
