A New Brittania

Humphrey McQueen’s irreverent classic traces the origins of the Australian Labor Party. In charting the social forces which nurtured the ALP, he shows it was anti-socialst from the very start. Along the way he reveals a colonial passion for pianos and uncovers the proto-fascist ideas behind Henry Lawson’s popular writings.
