The Light on the Hill commemorates the centenary of the Australian Labor Party, one of the worlds oldest political formations, which began to assemble in the pre-federation colonies in 1891.

With total access to ALP and national archives, McMullin has produced a frank and authoritative record of the influence and development of all seven Labor parties, namely those in the six states and the Federal Labor Party, which formed the first labor government soon after Australia became a nation in 1901.
