Ever since it flew above a crowd of angry miners at the Eureka Sotckade, the Southern Cross flag has been a heart-stirring symbol for a rebellious Australian spirit - from the Lalor family fresh off the boat from Ireland to Ned Kelly and his brother bushrangers, from the Anzacs at Gallipoli to those who formed the early Labour Party. But while it began as a potent symbol of mateship and the fight for a good old-fashioned fair go, it has also - at times - become a calling card for intolerance and racism. This is the journey of the SOuthern Cross: the emotions and rebellions it provoked, the characters who took it as their inspiration and the part it played in modern day Australia - from Ballarat to Gallipoli to the dark days of the Cronulla riots. Illustrated with colour and black and white photographs.
