"First published in 1940, this book has remained a classic work on the history of the Australian Labor Party and on the life and achievements of William A. Holman.  At an early age, Holman became Australia's greatest orator, the most able organiser of the Labor movement and one of the Labor Party's most brilliant leaders.  Dr Evatt has presented a brilliant personal biography as well as a history of the main threads of Australian politics from 1890 to 1934.  With a foreword by the Hon. Neville Wran, Premier of New South Wales, William Holman presents a fascinating picture of Australia at the turn of the century and beyond, with illuminating portraits not only of Holman, but of the men who brought about Federation and who shaped Australia's destiny."
