The title comes from the line attributed to Mark Twain that the ink of history is itself “fluid prejudice.” \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcross 175 pages of black-and-white comics and drawings, the anthology moves through colonisation, Aboriginal history, protest movements, racism, migration, environmental politics, labour, queer lives, personal memory and national mythology. Contributors approach these subjects through reportage, autobiography, satire, documentary comics and deliberately subjective reconstruction. The different drawing styles and political positions keep interrupting any possibility of a single authoritative Australian story; it's fantastic. Contemporary reviews singled it out precisely for its attention to underrepresented and marginalised histories. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEdited and published by Melbourne cartoonist and comics journalist Sam Wallman, whose later work has continued to move between labour history, politics and graphic journalism. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdition\/Condition: Glass Flag, Melbourne, 2014.
