Description

Jenny Hocking's political biography of barrister, politician and High Court judge Lionel Murphy created a sensation when it was first published in 1997. The book forced a reinterpretation of Murphy's considerable legal, social and political legacy. Now available in paperback, this new version includes an epilogue in which Hocking reassesses Murphy's place in the recent political and legal landscape. She argues that a long and influential career should not be obscured by the traumatic years before his death nor the media sensationalism since.
