Why Australia was settled by the British and not her competitors
By Jim Bain
In this introductory history, Jim Bain shows why Australia was settled by the British and not by the Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch or French, all of whom had shown interest in the Great South Land.
Jim was awarded a Membership of the Order of Australia for services to commerce. His first book published in 2001, was The Remarkable Roller Coaster, Forty years in the Australian Finance Industry. His second book A Financial Tale of Two Cities, published in 2007, describes Sydney and Melbourne's remarkable contest to become Australia's financial capital.
