Interesting Story + History of Sydney
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
BtSC is an epic story of three generations in Australia, beginning with a young man transported there as a felon and continuing to modern times. The book is well written & I really enjoyed it, and I found the history of Sydney woven through the story fascinating to read. Anyone interested in the history of Sydney should enjoy this book.
must read for Aussie traveler
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Before leaving for 3 weeks in Australia, I searched desperately for fiction that would give me a background in the history and culture of this continent. Almost none is offered in the US. So it wasn't until I browsed a bookstore in Perth that I found a section of Australian authors and a lot of books by Australian actress Judy Nunn. Beneath the Southern Cross was just what I was looking for. It is an epic that begins with a British convict escorting his grandsons around Sydney Harbor at the turn of the 19th Century through the Olympics preparations in 2000. Great choice.
