The story of John Grey Gorton as Prime Minister of Australia and his downfall. John Gorton became Prime Minister of Australia after the drowning death of his predecessor Harold Holt in 1967.

The author, John Reid was regarded as the head of the press gallery at the time and well versed in all the machinations of Gorton's tenure. A fantastic history of the times. Quantity Available: 1.
