Publishers Description: On January 1, 1901, the six Australian colonies of Great Britain combined to form the new independent nation of Australia. This volume charts the evolution of the federation movement, from the early days of the British colony when governors struggled against the power of the NSW Rum Corps, through the development of responsible government in the Australian colonies to the eventual, but hardwon, achievement of federation. Provides readers with an understanding of how and why federation came about and what it all means in terms of Australian nationhood.
