This book is a gem for any Tasmanian who may want to know more about various aspects of our history than is usually available. Shakespeare's intriguing account of searching out the stories of his forbears and their place in the early years of Tasmania's European settlement is spare and sparkling.
For armchair travellers this book offers an ideosynchratic glimpse of a very different frontier.
Read and discover it for yourselves!

Shakespeare's Family Album (Boring)
The author is terribly fascinated with his own family tree, but I'm not so sure anybody else will be. He revels in the bloody antics of his ancestor, "the father of Tasmania," a conscienceless scoundrel who laid waste to the ancient island; I was not so amused. The other early European settlers weren't much better.
