Reviews

[Grant Wilcock · Rating 4 out of 5]

A very interesting take on the Australian Labor Party in Opposition. Annabel Crabb writes well and has well researched and studied point of view. Recommended for all intersted in Australian political history in this time.

[Brett · Rating 2 out of 5]

A very serviceable straight forward history of the Australian Labor Party's wilderness years. The author obviously had many inside sources.
