Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Light wear to dust jacket edges. Tiny spots on top foredge.

This biography reveals, for the first time, the private life behind the public events to which Margaret Whitlam was both a witness and a participant.

Susan Mitchell first interviewed Margaret Whitlam for her book The Matriarchs, after which they became friends. Now, as a writer close to Margaret and her family, she reveals what lies behind the descriptions of 'icon' and 'national treasure'.

She has been given access to Margaret's collection of private papers, press cuttings and diaries, and she shares insights from these as she documents Margaret's journey from semi-detached in Bondi to the Lodge, from her husband's accession to Prime Minister to his dismissal, and all the full years beyond.

This is an intimate biography of Margaret Whitlam, clear-eyes, unsentimental, witty and poignant. (book flap)
