While much has been written about aspects of Australia's relationship with its Pacific region there have been few attempts to consider the topic in its entirety.
From the movement of the Australian continent to the Pacific rim, the arrival of the first people, colonisation, race nationalism, Australia's own colonial ambitions, world wars and the awkward shift from transplanted European society to Pacific nation in the 20th and 21st centuries.
In this illustrated talk, Ian Hoskins will discuss how he came to write his broad ranging history of Australia and the Pacific.
About the speaker:
Dr Ian Hoskins was the CH Currey Fellow at the State Library of NSW in 2019 researching their Pacific collections. His Sydney Harbour: a history and Coast: A history of the New South Wales edge both won major book awards. Rivers: Lifeblood of Australia was published by the National Library of Australia in 2019.
