- Synopsis
- This is a concise and lively history of Tasmania from its earliest times to the late 1990s. It is also a case study of British colonization in Australia, tracing the rocky path from invasion to modernity, from the rigors of Van Dieman's Land to the Franklin Dam controversy. For this new edition, Michael Roe has added two new chapters which provide a history up to 1996.
