Download or read book A Concise History of Australia written by Stuart Macintyre and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-08-24 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia is the last continent to be settled by Europeans, but it also sustains a people and a culture tens of thousands of years old. For much of the past 200 years the newcomers have sought to replace the old with the new. This book tells how they imposed themselves on the land, and brought technology, institutions and ideas to make it their own. It relates the advance from penal colony to a prosperous free nation and illustrates how, in a nation created by waves of newcomers, the search for binding traditions has long been frustrated by the feeling of rootlessness. This revised edition incorporates the most recent historical research and contemporary historical debates on frontier violence between European settlers and Aborigines and the Stolen Generations. It covers the Sydney Olympics, the refugee crisis and the 'Pacific solution'. More than ever before, Australians draw on the past to understand their future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of South Australia: Published by Authority of the Government in Connection With the Visit of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, Australian Meeting, 1914 The British Association for the Advancement of Science having, at the invitation of the Commonwealth, resolved to hold its annual meeting of 1914 in Australia, the Government of South Australia has authorised and published this Official Handbook of the State. While the main purpose of the book is to supply to visiting members of the Association information concerning the progress and resources of South Australia, a limited number of scientific articles which bear more or less directly upon the industrial and economic development of the State, or which convey local information not readily obtainable elsewhere, have also been included. The official details have been supplied by Government Departments or by the Executive Officers of Public Institutions, and the illustrations, except those otherwise acknowledged, have been provided by the Government Photo-lithographic Department. Subjects of a widely national character, or which pertain to Australia as a whole, are dealt with in the Handbook issued by the Federal Government in connection with the meeting of the Association, and the scope of this book has consequently been limited, as far as possible, to questions which are of special interest or concern to the State of South Australia.
