Australian Biographical Monograph No. 21 unveils the influential tenure of Brian Harradine, Tasmania's Independent Senator from 1975 to 2004. Disputing the belief that independent politicians lack impact, Harradine, once an ALP member, demonstrated an independent's potential. Acknowledged by Prime Minister John Howard for his pivotal role in social issues yet remaining a staunch Labor advocate in industrial reforms, Harradine was a force to reckon with. Researched by Keith Harvey this overdue volume delves into Harradine's principled stance, spotlighting his intersection with Catholic social teachings and his lasting influence on policy and action.
