Gordon Brown was a remarkable Australian political agitator, who by his own admission had no time for "the dominating and dictatorial do-littles who claim superiority over the working plugs." Having stood up for those "working plugs" his whole life, it was only reluctantly that Brown was convinced to write an autobiography. But, filled as it is with honest and unapologetic lessons on what Australia needed, then and now, he wrote an Australian political biography that is also a true national classic. Light marks to covers. Light dampstain wear to edges of covers. Some dampstain splash to back cover and spine. Very light foxing to first/last few pages. Previous owners inscription on inside cover.
