The second of three volumes of the landmark, award-winning series The Europeans in Australia gives an account of early settlement by Britain. Volume Two, Democracy, takes the story from around 1815 to the early 1870s. By exploring the nineteenth-century communications revolution Atkinson casts new light on the way Australia first found its place in a global world."
