Error Australis

By: Ben Pobjie

Narrated by: Jim Pike

Australia is a proud country full of proud people, but exactly what are we proud of? Comedian and history buff Ben Pobjie delves deep into Australia’s past and has a good old rummage amongst the nation’s personal effects. With wit, perspicacity and a healthily elastic attitude to historical accuracy, the great saga of Australia is unravelled like an old woolly jumper. For anyone who snoozed through history class at school, this is the book to get you all caught up.©2016 Ben Pobjie (P)2016 W F Howes Ltd

One of my all time favourites

Absolutely loved this book. Its such a fun way to be introduced to Australian history. Definitely not a book you want to quote at school but such a good casual way to learn about the subject.

Hilarious history of Australia

One of the funniest books I've listened to. Highlights some of the atrocities of the past and gives a decent overview of how this nation got to where it is now.

Narration is very good if bordering on racist. Was Paul Keating really that Italian?

Literally a joke at the end of every sentence takes some getting used to. But highly recommended.
