Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. "The restless ambition of James Ford Cairns took him from a modest background to Deputy Prime Minister of Australia. After his astonishing downfall he went on to preach sexual freedom and love as the basis of social change, continuing to baffle and enrage a nation that for a long time had been divided between distrust of him and hero worship. From his conservative days as a clerk and athlete, then Special Branch detective, Kim Cairns rose to lead the historic marches against the Vietnam war and to give protest a respectable face. But there were those who saw him as a traitor, authoritarian behind the facade of peace, and a man easily flattered by those he saw as important. This book penetrates Cairn's psychological defences. It traces a career that was accompanied by triumph, scandal, vilification, isolation and the outrage of his Labor supporters. His fundamental personal changes came when he was made Treasurer, and Junie Morosi, strong and beautiful, entered his life and unzipped him emotionally. Never afraid to take an unpopular course, Cairns followed his causes to the end. This quality, which so distinguished him as a man, crippled him as a politician." --- Original navy card covers, lettered white and cream on top cover, lettered black and white on orange spine (20 cm height). One spine crease. Pp. viii, 256 including Author's Note, Index. Four pages of photographs. Notes at Chapter Ends.

"It was the lesson of the sporting fields, the public schools, the cadet forces, the Boy Scouts, the press, the pulpit, that British morality was the backbone of civilization. When they bellowed out Land of Hope and Glory the British thanked God for making them mighty and then asked him for more." Donald Horne scrutinizes the British predicament with a deadly eye.

SYNOPSIS: The man who for eighteen years was Prime Minister of Australia records with wit and humanity his recollections of world events he helped to shape and of the men he met in public life - Churchill, Baldwin, Chamberlain, Attlee, Roosevelt, Kennedy, de Gaulle, Nasser and many others. Robert Gordon Menzies was born in Jeparit, Victoria, in 1894. He read law at Melbourne University and was admitted to the bar in 1918. He entered federal politics in 1934, was Prime Minister of Australia from 1939 to 1941 and 1949 to 1963, when he retired at the age of 71. In 1956 he led the U.K. mission to Cairo to discuss the Suez Canal dispute with President Nasser. Created Knight of the Thistle in 1963, Sir Robert was the first Australian to be so honoured. In 1963 Sir Robert delivered the Jefferson Oration in Virginia, U.S.A. and in 1966 lectured at the University of Virginia. His published works include the Rule of Law During War (1917), Studies in the Australian Constitution (1933), Speech is of Time (1958), Central Power in the Australian Commonwealth (1966) and Afternoon Light. As well as having played a prominent part in Australian and world affairs, Sir Robert is keenly interested in cricket, rarely missing an opportunity to watch a Test match. When not discharging his duties as Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, an office to which he succeeded Sir Winston Churchill, Sir Robert and Dame Pattie Menzies live in Melbourne.
