Media Reviews
'A polished work that deals with the career of a significant character in Australian public life over much of the past century ... an important contribution' The Sydney Morning Herald 'The people who find Australian political history boring are the people who have never read Australian political history. In this shrewd, readable and telling new biography, we have one more essential part of the jigsaw puzzle of who we are and why we relate to the world in the way we do.' The Australian Literary Review
