Viac o knihe
An extraordinary volume--even a masterpiece - about the early history of Australia that reads like the finest of novels. Hughes captures everything in this complex tableau with narrative finesse that drives the reader ever deeper into specific facts and greater understanding. He presents compassionate understanding of the plights of colonists--both freemen and convicts - and the Aboriginal peoples they displaced. One of the very best works of history I have ever read.
