AUSTRALIANA
The Labor split of the 1950s changed the whole shape of Australian politics. Three decades later it still arouses passion and division as its repercussions continue to bedevil the Labor Party and union movement. The Split, widely considered to be the best account of these momentous events, draws on ‘inside information’ and extensive interviews with participants, many of whom are now dead, to reveal the complex series of events, the intrigues, the dedication and wheeler dealing behind the breakdown.
