This is a cartoon history of Australia by one of its most famous cartoonists. It is published to coincide with Australia's bicentennial celebrations and is an official publication of the Bicentennial Committee. Drawing on images from Aboriginal times to the present, Victoria Roberts illustrates the history of a nation which has given us such diverse exports as Foster's lager and the koala bear, Dame Edna Everage and the rotary drier, Germaine Greer and the pavlova. The work is well researched and is designed for those who enjoy sophisticated, witty cartoons as well as fans of Australia. Victoria Roberts is author of "My Day" and "Biographies".
