Opis
This is the story of the writing of Manning Clark's life work, his huge, controversial 6-volume A History of Australia. A Historian's Apprenticeship describes Manning Clark's dream about the history of Australia - wanting to tell the story, the years of reading, travel and reflection leading to its composition - learning to tell the story, and the laborious process of writing itself - trying to tell the story, often through three or four drafts of 200 000 words. This little book offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse of Manning Clark's enormous scholarly achievement.
