Convincing Ground is a wide-ranging, personal and powerful work that resonates with historical and contemporary Australian debates about identity, dispossession, memory and community.For Pascoe, the Australian character was not forged at Gallipoli, Eureka and the back of Bourke, but in the more satanic furnace of Murdering Flat, Convincing Ground and Werribee.He knows we can't reverse the past, but we can bring our souls in from the fog of delusion. He proposes a way forward, beyond shady intellectual argument and immature nationalism: strengths intact; weaknesses acknowledged and addressed. (back cover).
