Focusing on the National Party, this history shares the extraordinary story of a political organization—large in grassroots members, yet small in parliamentary terms—that has made an enormous and largely unrecognized contribution to Australia’s social and economic development. A colorful and interesting read, this comprehensive study highlights the structure, achievements, failures, and internal conflicts of Australia’s second oldest political party. This informative record will especially interest those with a fascination for Australian political history.
