| Note |
This project has been assisted by the Autralian Government through the Australian Council, its arts funding and advisory body. |
| Contains brief accounts of the lives of young Australians from "the Ice Age to the Apology". Some of the subjects of the eighty mini-biographies have become nationally or even internationally famous. Others were legends in their own families and communities. Meticulously researched, beautifully written and highly readable, Australians All helps us understand who we are, and how we belong to the land we all share. It also shows us who we might be. Reflects a commitment to the issues of reconciliation, social justice and the conservation of the environment. |
