The Great Australian Pie
The delightful and fascinating story of the rise of Australia’s favourite comestible from its earliest days to the current peak of popularity with our annual consumption of more than 400 million golden pies.
It not only traces its foundations in the centuries past but includes the wondrous tale of The Flying Pieman, a Sydney character whose tragic love story set him on a remarkable career of pedestrian feats, powered by his own very special pies.

A truly charming story!
Ah mate I’ve been hanging for a good pie for seven years while I’m stuck here in the US. I can’t wait to return to Melbourne and sink my teeth into a delicious meat pie from the corner petrol station!!! I was doing pretty good till I read your description of a pie now I’m off my tree again for one. Struth
