Summary In this volume, five essayists including John Fahey and Anne Twomey respond to Anne Henderson's Gerald Glynn O'Collins Oration - Federation's man of letters: Patrick McMahon Glynn.--Cover.
"This biographical study is both delight and revelation. Here was a Federation-era politician on the right side of so many issues, bold enough to advocate humane treatment of the Chinese in the Australian colonies and to urge free-trade rather than protection. As early as 1898 he saw the day when “the centre of the world struggle is being shifted west to east” and England may not be able to protect Australia. He was the one Catholic in the leadership of the non-Labor Parties; by any test as thoughtful and learned a politician as we ever had -- Bob Carr"--Page [i].
