Australian Labor Movement

Book Condition: Very Good. Paperback. Size E: 8"-9" Tall (203-228mm). First published as a book in 1962. The second volume of Jack Lang's reminiscences of his experiences in NSW politics. The Great Bust covers the late 1920's and the Depression years.

It contains Lang's own account of the political crisis of the 1930's in which his Government was dismissed by Governor Game.
