This a biographical book on Jack Lang, Premier of NSW who was dismissed by the State Governor during the depression of the 1930's. It gives a view of Lang himself, his political beliefs and his inability to get along with people, including his own Party. It includes a very in depth look at the NSW Labor Party in the 1920's & 30's, maybe too in depth. This is a book for people studying the politics of NSW in that period, it is not a light read although it is informative.
