How did a far-flung colony and military outpost transform into one of the wealthiest and most peaceful nations in the modern world? Dip into the pages to discover these answers and more. This detailed illustrated history of Australia journeys from the formation of the continent to the growth of a modern, thriving nation.

The Story of Australia draws on the National Museum of Australia's rich collection of objects, photographs, and artifacts.
