Damien, I have not found this to be the case in my part of the world. A book having been written by an Australian is seen as a major marketing point to be emphasized. Don't you realize Americans love aussies?? : ) We realize your nation has much more to offer than just Foster's, Paul Hogan, rugby, Elle McPherson, and koala bears.
best wishes,
John
