Talk by C. P. FitzGerald
Professor of Far Eastern History,
Australian National University
It has sometimes been claimed that the Chinese discovered Australia long before the days of Captain Cook. Professor FitzGerald describes what he regards as the one piece of evidence so far that does point to the possibility of such a discovery.
This is a broadcast version of a lecture given at the twenty-third International Congress of Orientalists in Cambridge.
