How an ancient land became a great democracy. Longlisted for Best Non Fiction in the Indie Book Awards 2026 'Tony Abbott should be congratulated ... This history of Australia is vivid, readable, provocative' Geoffrey Blainey, historian Australia is one of the world's great success stories: a land long hidden from outsiders, chosen as a convict dumping ground, where - since 1788 - people from many backgrounds have built one of the freest, fairest and most prosperous countries on earth. By the standards of a harsher time, the early governors tried to respect the original inhabitants and to encourage the convict outcasts of the British Isles to make a new start to a better life. This Indigenous heritage, British foundation and immigrant character have shaped the land of the 'fair go' especially for those willing to 'have a go'. It's not perfect, even now, yet mostly we have a history to be proud of. Within a century of settlement, Australia had not only the world's highest standard of living but had become a global pioneer for democratic freedoms such as the secret ballot, the payment of MPs and voting rights for women. A country largely created by settlement and negotiation has evolved from 'White Australia' at the time of federation into one of the world's most colour-blind societies and has managed the transition from an old 'Anglo' identity to a civic patriotism based on an overriding commitment to Australia and its values. This book is intended to give anyone interested - as every Australian should be - an account of our past that's positive, while not oblivious to our mistakes and imperfections as a nation. If to be an Australian is still to have won the lottery of life, the history that's produced us is surely something to savour. Now a major TV documentary available to stream at Sky News Australia. PRAISE 'Tony Abbott's book is inspired by love of country, yet he comes to grip with our flaws. This is a fresh, powerful, highly readable single-volume history of Australia that deserves a wide audience' Paul Kelly, editor-at-large, The Australian 'Scholarly researched, scrupulously fair-minded and very engagingly written, this is big narrative history at its best. It explains why Australia is such a wonderfully unique place, and why history is all the better when written by those who themselves helped make it' - Andrew Roberts, author, Churchill: Walking with Destiny 'Not quite the "white armband" version of history I was expecting in the first half, nor a "Liberal Party highlights package" in the second half. I enjoyed reading it' - Peter FitzSimons, author, Kokoda This is an immensely readable account of how - as I frequently call it - the "Australian Achievement" has been built' - Hon John Howard OM AC, former prime minister of Australia 'Tony Abbott's latest book is a powerful antidote to the poison of little and bad history ... we have much to be thankful for and to build on' Hon John Anderson AC, former deputy prime minister of Australia and leader of the National Party 'The former prime minister has done a good job with Australia: A History' Frank Bongiorno, historian 'if you have a serious interest in Australian history, the book will go on your shelves' Hon Kim Beazley AC, former deputy prime minister of Australia 'Tony Abbott has written with reverence and richness, bringing our nation's past, although both painful and proud, to life with striking clarity' Nova Peris OAM OLY, first Aboriginal-Australian Olympic gold medallist and former Labor senator 'This book is a compelling reminder of our inheritance, which gives us a reason to be proud of who we are and the country we've become' - Jacinta Nampijinpa Price, federal senator for Northern Territory 'Tony Abbott brings history to life in a way that is both enlightening and deeply engaging' Brett Lee, former Australian international cricketer 'This book helps us rediscover our past with honesty and respect, so we can better understand our present and shape a stronger, more inclusive future' Dai Le MP, independent member for Fowler

Tony Banks: Man of Spells - The Magician of Genesis

Following critically acclaimed Kingmaker books including Giammetti's authoritative two-volume history of Genesis, Joe Banks' definitive biography of Van der Graaf Generator leader Peter Hammill and candid autobiographies by Jakko Jakszyk (King Crimson) and Mark Kelly (Marillion), Tony Banks: Man of Spells - The Magician of Genesis is the first ever English language biography of one of rock music's most gifted and influential writers and performers. In Tony Banks: Man of Spells - The Magician of Genesis renowned Genesis expert Giammetti recounts the story of Banks' life and music in exhaustive detail. The book focuses in particular on Banks' frequently overlooked solo career while also covering all of his work with Genesis. Giammetti draws from a number of interviews which he has personally conducted over the years with Banks, alongside interviews with other key personalities in the musician's circle. At over 250 pages, and illustrated with more than 100 images, including many rare and previously unpublished photographs, Tony Banks: Man of Spells - The Magician of Genesis shines a light on a musician who remains an enigma to many people despite his enormous success and widespread influence. Gregory Spawton, co-owner of Kingmaker Publishing and co-founder of the band Big Big Train, comments: "While there have been various books written by or about all the other major players in Genesis, there has until now never been one focused exclusively on Tony Banks. We felt it was important to shine a brighter light on his life and career. Following the success of his two Genesis books which we have previously published, Mario Giammetti was the compelling author to write this biography."

Agnes von Krusenstjerna (1894-1940) var en av den svenska mellankrigstidens mest uppmärksammade författare. Hennes romaner, som ofta avhandlar kvinnors liv, drömmar, relationer och sexualitet väckte både beundran och motstånd. Hon kom från en högborgerlig miljö, men valde att skriva djärvt om tabubelagda ämnen. Trots sjukdom skrev Krusenstjerna närmare tjugo romaner, fem novellsamlingar, en diktsamling, resereportage m.m. Hennes verk har givit henne en självklar plats i den svenska litteraturhistorien – inte minst för den provocerande romansviten om Fröknarna von Pahlen, som orsakade en häftig kulturdebatt, ”Pahlenfejden” 1934-35, om bl.a. gränserna för litteraturens moraliska frihet. Genombrottet kom dock på 1920-talet, med en självbiografiskt inspirerad bokserie i tre volymer. Romanerna var Tony växer upp: scener ur ett barndomsliv (1922), Tonys läroår: episoder ur en ungdom (1924), och Tonys sista läroår: resa till kejsarens hotell (1926). Romansviten skildrar en överklasstjejs barndom och ungdomsår; hennes skoltid, vänskaper, sexuella uppvaknande och erfarenhet av psykisk sjukdom. Böckerna fick ett stort genomslag och kritikersuccén var ett faktum.

It Is, It Isn't juxtaposes reproductions of Tony Cragg's swirling sculptures with a selection of those poems that have most affected his practice. From W.H. Auden to Walt Whitman, Billy Collins to Mina Loy, the poems Cragg has chosen collude with his works in wood, stainless steel, bronze and stone, highlighting the rhythmic and lyrical properties of both.
