Think you know where the English language came from This work seeks to destroy the cherished national myths of the English, the Scots, the Welsh, the Irish and the French. It shows that: most of the entries in the Oxford English Dictionary are wrong; the whole of British place-name theory is misconceived; Latin is not what it seems; and more.

In these essays, John Hirst delves into Australia's history, politics and society. He selects the best history books and explores the idea that Australian Rules has its origins in Aboriginal pastimes. He examines our convict legacy, its contribution to the national character, and our peculiar adoption of bushmen and bushrangers as popular heroes.
