Eamon Evans

Great Australian Urban Legends (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Satanists in Perth. Panthers in Sydney. Inner Melbourne's secret morgue.

Australia is stuffed full of stories that need to be taken with a big spoon of salt. Stories that we all know are silly, but that we also just can't help sharing. In Great Australian Urban Legends, Eamon Evans presents you with myths, misconceptions and bare-faced lies about real people and real places down under. These pages libel Captain Cook and slander Phar Lap. They will annoy the Wiggles and David Boon. They will reveal whether Harold Holt really died, if the bunyip ever lived, and which famous Australian now gets by as a ghost.

Autorenporträt

Eamon Evans is the author of fifteen books, one or two of them pretty good. He's written about history, sport, scandals, words, films, alcohol and urban legends, but until The Importance of Being Miserable he's not done much with his philosophy degree, apart from bore people at parties. Eamon lives with his family in Melbourne, where he writes, teaches, overwaters his garden and worries about going bald.
