'The true stories from Ripping Yarns and Ripping Yarns 1 are now combined into one timeless collection of rollicking great stories. For the first time they are collected together in one beautiful, illustrated large format hardback. More than seventy stories feature in this collection, ranging from our seafaring swashbuckling beginnings - and shipwrecks - via our deadly enigmas and Hollywood idols to our sporting epics and great war tales. This is a book that every Australian interested in our real history will enjoy – an absorbing cavalcade of characters and events that have shaped our heritage.' (Publication summary)
