Becoming Australia series

Spanning Federation, two world wars, the Depression, the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Cowra Breakout, and the long road to peace, the Becoming Australia series captures the humour, hardship, and humanity of ordinary Australians in extraordinary times.

For readers who cherish meticulously researched historical fiction, An Attractive Naivety and Ashes and Sakura together form a vivid, unflinching, and ultimately hopeful account of Australia’s coming of age in the 20th century.
