An interview with Maritime Historian Chris Maxworthy.
We discuss his discovery of the Spanish Empire's plans to attack the British colony in Sydney, who actually discovered the 'Great Southern Land' and why Australians know so little about their own history.
Chris is a Winston Churchill Fellow who originally qualified as an electrical engineer. Previously he has served as a Councillor of the Royal Australian Historical Society (RAHS) and as Vice President of the Australian Association of Maritime History (AAMH).
