“Sir John Kerr was Governor-General of Australia at the time of Australia’s greatest constitutional crisis since Federation. This dramatic autobiography traces the complete story of the events leading up to 11 November 1975 when Sir John Kerr exercised controversial reserve powers of the Crown to dismiss the Prime Minister, Mr Gough Whitlam, and his Ministry and commissioned the leader of the Opposition Mr Malcolm Fraser, to form a caretaker Government.”
