Experiment with Time is a 1948 Australian radio series that examines historical events.[1][2]

One of its writers was Morris West.[3]

The Advocate called it "a worth while session, well written and imaginatively presented."[4] The same paper did another review which said "The material is endless; the series, which is well written and produced, will serve as a refresher course in history for those who want it, and it is excellent entertainment whether you want to be instructed or not."[5]
