Abstract
To appreciate in full the sense of Queensland pride in a century of achievement since Federation, this book is set out in two parts. Ending with the accounts of Federation celebrations across the State in 2001, it begins in 1901 when the Commonwealth was declared. This was an era in Queensland when economic uncertainty and frontier individualism dominated, when not all Queenslanders were in favour of the movement toward a unified nation. This comparison of Queensland in 1901 and 2001 is richly illustrated with archival and contemporary photographs.
