The Honest History Book

In this lively collection, renowned writers including Paul Daley, Mark McKenna, Peter Stanley, Carolyn Holbrook, Mark Dapin, Carmen Lawrence, Frank Bongiorno and Larissa Behrendt explore not only the militarisation of Australian history but the alternative narratives swamped under the khaki wash - Indigenous history, frontier conflict, multiculturalism, the myth of egalitarianism, and economics.
