We are offering you an extraordinary opportunity to meet Australia’s greatest and most prolific history writer, Tom Keneally. Tonight he will introduce the second volume of a unique history of Australia where people are always centre stage. His first volume, Australians Origins to Eureka (winner of the Australian Book Industry Award for Non-Fiction in 2010), closed with the aftermath of the Eureka Stockade of December 1854. His next volume, Australians: Eureka to The Diggers, picks up from this time of great change and follows the story of Australia and its people through to World War I. Join us as Tom speaks on equity and savage class conflict, as well as the vast range of characters who have formed our national story.
