Hello all,
I apologize if I am using powderworks for this question, but it's my only
link to anyone in Australia.
Has anyone read the book The Fatal Shore by Robert Hughes? It is about the
founding of Australia. I am reading it now and I am rather intrigued by it.
I was wondering if it is relatively unbiased. A lot of American history
books are biased towards how wonderful we are. In school, we didn't learn a
whole heck of a lot about how the Native Americans were treated (that would
make us look too bad).
I have ordered a copy of the book "Capricornia". The new CD sparked my
interest.
Janice
