In this centennial history of the Australian Labor Party (ALP) in Western Australia, interwoven with the stories of Premiers, party and union leaders, Dr Bobbie Oliver has included the contributions of bush organisers and party workers.

Drawing on a vast body of archival material, Dr Oliver traces the slow and often unseen progress of women and minority groups in gaining influence within the Party or the industrial organisation.
