What if Captain Cook's ship sank when it hit the Great Barrier Reef in 1770? And what if the French settled in Australia first? Then what if King Louis the 16th and Napoleon both ended up here, fighting over who was the righful ruler in exile? And then the British arrived... A very different and amusing history of Australia, where the unexpecte happens in unexpected ways.
