Glass Margaret
Charles Cameron Kingston : Federation Father
The Miegunyah Press At Melbourne University Press Carlton Australia 1997. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. Illustrator: Various. 600 g; XII 248 pages last page blank includes endnotes bibliography index. Illustrated with political cartoons and black-and-white photographs. Illustrated dust jacket. Charles Kingston was a leading player in Australia's Federation. He became Premier of South Australia in 1893 yet cared little for the norms of the polite colonial society of the late 19th century Adelaide and together with his wife Lucy was ostracised accordingly. He was accused of adultery and subsequently adopted an illegitimate child; he challenged a political opponent to duel; yet he introduced radical and progressive legislation on industrial conciliation and arbitration on the creation of the State Bank of South Australia and on trade and tariff reforms. Thanks to him South Australia led the world on the enfranchisement of women. And Kingston's commitment and contribution to the cause and creation of Australian federalism was beyond question. -- front fold over blurb Size: 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall.
