The Making of Australia by David Hill

3.0

I enjoyed the first half. It contained a lot of interesting information about the colonies of Australia. The second half was super boring. Could have been one chapter.

ok for an overview of the history of Australia.. but way too many names to keep track of and way too much use of external sources/notes (mainly newspaper) within the text (in addition to a huge footnotes section).. it ends up being a quick read even though nearly 400 pages..
