This book I found to be ok. However the $25 price tag is far too high.

The options are interesting, but as an American, i cannot appreciate the subtleties of Australian politics and the "empires" of different times as they (if they) focused more on Australia. On the other hand, this book tries very hard to read as a textbook - and fails.

An interesting (and for the most part fun) thought experiment on how Australian History may have played out if an event turned out different (e.g France colonises TAsmania, Whitlam avoids the dismissal, The northern rivers are directed to LAke Eyre basin).
