Wunderbar Country (1982) examines the experiences of Australia's
second largest migrant community, the Germans. Many Germans saw
Australia as a land of social equality and mobility, with unlimited
resources and economic possibilities. This book analyses Australian
social legislation and the labour movement, the subject of much
debate in Germany. Articles present both sides to an argument, with
some stating that Australia was indeed a workers' paradise, the
home of social progress; others point to miserable working
conditions. It also deals with the experiences of immigrants from
Germany to this new land: rural life in Bong Bong; a meeting with
Ned Kelly; Adelaide in the 1850s; the wild gold town of Ballarat.
