In this episode of The Horse's Mouth, I had the great pleasure of talking with Dr Dzavid Haveric.
Dzavid is a force of nature — an academic of the highest order, you might say. He's one of the most well-read people I've ever met and has dedicated his life's work to history, particularly the story of early Muslims trading with the First Nations people of Arnhem Land prior to white colonisation.
His published work also explores Muslims fighting alongside Australians in the Boer War and both World Wars. To date, he has had 16 books published, along with numerous university papers.
Dzavid's own story is just as remarkable. He grew up in Bosnia and fled when Serbia invaded in the early 1990s, eventually making his way to Australia.
Dzavid's life is an incredible story, and I was thrilled to have him on for a chat.
Cheers, Dzavid.
