A History of Queensland is the first single volume analysis of
Queensland's past, stretching from the time of earliest human
habitation up to the present. It encompasses pre-contact Aboriginal
history, the years of convictism, free settlement and subsequent
urban and rural growth. It takes the reader through the tumultuous
frontier and Federation years, the World Wars, the Cold War, the
controversial Bjelke-Petersen era and on, beyond the beginning of
the new millennium. It reveals Queensland as a sprawling, harsh,
diverse and conflictual place, where the struggles of race,
ethnicity, class, generation and gender have been particularly
pronounced, and political and environmental encounters have
remained intense. It is a colourful, surprising and at times
disturbing saga, a perplexing and diverting mixture of ferocity,
endurance and optimism.
