Summary
'Beautiful Lies' is an original account of the people, events and forces that have shaped Australia since the second world war. It is racy, maverick and impartial - a tour de force. The author makes Australian history seem effortless, he manages to cover the events of more than half a century at a rollicking pace, while capturing all the important details - and a vast number of amusing ones along the way.
