โฆ Synopsis
Have you ever thought to yourself that Australia's history is slipping away?
After listening to a good yarn or having read some historically noteworthy passage or having followed a particular debateโyou may think that you'd always remember itโbut you didn't! And don't you wish you recorded those stories so that in your hassle-free times you could reminisce and again experience their inherent interest, emotion or challenge?
Here then is a faithfully reproduced anthology of quintessential Australian short stories, not just for those in their second childhood, but for young readers to gain a feel of an older Australia, and to also enjoy. The study of history in secondary education can be fascinating and inspiringโor boring beyond belief. Stories such as these will entertain students, challenge their thinking, and bring each subject to life.
This collection of works from seventeen contributors intentionally incorporates diverse (even controversial) topics. Some of these stories are undeniably true. Others are worthy of more researchโstill, others are fiction, which can express human truths better than non-fiction.
No matter how improbable, fanciful or quirky the reader may consider some of these stories, imagination is, after all, fun, boundless, and deserves to be shared.
