Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Few Australians have any awareness of how their nation was established on 1 January 1901 when six self-governing British colonies joined together as one nation. It was achieved after a dozen years of superb negotiations in which Federation conventions drafted and agreed on a splendid constitution which was approved by six colonial parliaments, six referendums in which ordinary Australians had their say, negotiations in London to have the British parliament gave its approval and finally gain the agreement of a difficult Queen Victoria who wanted the six colonies to become counties of England. Above all, it was achieved without violence, unlike their counterparts in USA. Everald Compton has now written a vivid account of it all as he creates a dinner held ten years after Federation in which the founding fathers relive the great political and legal battles they fought and the huge parochial attitudes they overcame to create a nation. It is one of those books which makes you stay awake to turn the next page. More importantly, it will get you thinking about the changes that are needed to the Constitution 120 years after Federation to make it relevant to a hugely different and rapidly changing world. Few Australians have any awareness of how their nation was established on 1 January 1901 when six self-governing British colonies joined together as one nation.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Everald Compton first went to church ninety-three years ago when his mother Thelma took him with her to the Linville Methodists when he was just three weeks old. He has attended churches around the world on most Sundays ever since. Over those years, he was initially a fundamentalist, but then has progressively moved on to be a traditionalist, modernist, liberal and reformer. Now he is a working partner of Jesus the Man. With the decline of Churches, plus the fact that fewer than 50% of Australians believe in God, and that the Australian Constitution contains no statement of community values, he has been motivated to write Walking with The Man. He hopes that it will be read by many of the 90% of Australians who do not go to church and hopes to encourage them to adopt Jesus the Man as their role model for life without needing to go anywhere near a church. His book outlines his journey through life, and offers sixty-five sub-chapters about leaders who have inspired him along the way. It outlines a challenging pathway to a meaningful life in partnership with The Man which millions of responsible citizens can embrace positively. Everald is the author of five books and is a lifetime elder and lay preacher of the Uniting Church in Australia. He was awarded the Order of Australia twice and is a recipient of the Centenary Medal. He is also a Certified Practising Accountant and a Certified Practising Marketer, and has served as an adjunct professor at three universities. Everald's faith inspired him to become the founder of National Seniors Australia, the Inland Railway, St Andrews Hospital in Brisbane and Compton Gardens at Aspley. He lives in Brisbane with his wife Helen where they enjoy sixty-six years of marriage. Their four children, eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren live in Australia, Britain, and USA.

Interior and binding are still very good The Royal Flying Doctor Service is a revered legend of the development of Australia as a caring nation. However, few Australians are aware of the man who founded it - John Flynn - usually known as Flynn of the Inland. Flynn, who died in 1951, is regarded by historians as one of Australia's greatest sons. In addition to creating the Flying Doctor, he pioneered the Pedal Radio, founded the School of the Air, and built bush hospitals all over the continent on behalf of the Australian Inland Mission.
