Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. A very good clean copy. This book examines the fierce public arguments in Australia over how the nation's past should be interpreted, taught, and remembered. Macintyre and Clark trace how debates about Indigenous history, colonisation, immigration, national identity, and the legacy of earlier historians spilled out of universities and into newspapers, politics, and public life. They describe the major flashpoints and personalities involved, from academic disputes to parliamentary speeches and media controversies, showing how history became a battleground for competing visions of Australia. The tone is engaged rather than detached, offering a narrative of how these disputes shaped national conversation in the late twentieth and early twenty?first centuries. N° de réf. du vendeur 050767

paperback. Etat : Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
