Description: Curtin's Empire by James Curran Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book breathes new life into the Curtin story by revealing a leader that, until now, has been either ignored or played down, particularly his vision of Australias place in the British Empire. Publisher Description John Curtin remains a venerated leader. His role as Labors wartime supremo is etched deep into the national psyche: the man who put Australia first, locked horns with Churchill, forged the alliance with the United States and became the saviour of the nation in its darkest hour. Drawing on new archival material including sensitive and private correspondence from Curtin never before seen or quoted, Curtins Empire shows that this British world vision was not imposed on him from abroad, rather it animated Curtin from deep within. Since entering politics Curtin had fought a bitter battle with his opponents - both inside and outside his party - over loyalty, identity and national security. At stake was how he and his party related to the defining idea of Australian politics for their times: Britishness. Author Biography James Curran is Senior Lecturer in the Department of History and the US Studies Center, University of Sydney.
