About this book
Bill Bryson flies into Australia and admits he has forgotten, again, who its prime minister is. That leads him to reflect on how little attention the rest of the world pays to the country, from its small population to its modest place in the world economy.
He recalls how Prime Minister Harold Holt vanished in the surf in 1967, and sets out to look at Australia more closely.
