Description - Fair Dinkum Histories: #5 A Nation of Swaggies & Diggers 1880-1920 by Jackie French

The Australian colonies had come a long way since they were a
dumping ground for grim crims and convicts. Life was comfortable—at least
for some. But soon drought would send swaggies waltzing their
matildas along the roads, and bad times would make politicians
dream of uniting the country into one nation. And then a far-off
war would create a different kind of digger. What they brought
back home would make greater changes to Australia than gold
ever did. Meet the scabs and the swaggies, battling politicians, doddering
generals, sheep stealers and heroic diggers who finally turned us
into a nation!
