ABOUT THE CD-ROM VERSION WHAT YOU WILL FIND ON THE CD VERSION Australia has had its hard times and history shows it. By recording events in their own lives, many of yesterday's generation created a time-stamp of history giving us a more accurate insight of the day, the people and the events which have culminated in our present day circumstances. These generations are the people who not only lived it, but together, have actually recorded the events leading up to, during and beyond, the creation of what once was the best country in the world, Australia. This site is a compilation of those efforts. I have purposefully included over 40 complete historical Australian e-texts on the CD version of this site. With these complete e-texts included, you can read the original stories for yourself, exactly how the authors wanted you to hear them. An invaluable collection, an instant library.
