Because a White Man'll Never Do It by Kevin Gilbert

4.0

---

This is a really interesting artefact of its - some of the language sits really uncomfortably with modern sensibilities but if you can get past that and the ego involved in some of his discussions of political rivals it's a fascinating book. One aspect of interest is that it was written in the very early days of the Whitlam government - I can tell you that their ATSI policy sounds positively revolutionary compared to anything either of the dumb and dumber side of politics offer today. Of course it wasn't and Gilbert very astutely rips it to shreds.
