Read Now Download Now ⏭ listen AudioBook
Description:  Described by Manning Clark as "Australia's greatest native son," William Charles Wentworth led a life of firsts. A man of rat cunning, great intelligence, and sharp wit, he wrote the first book by an Australian to be published, was joint editor and proprietor of the colony's first independent newspaper, and founder of Australia's first university. But more importantly, with ruthless energy and a volcanic personality this "convict brat" spent his life as an unrelenting advocate for comprehensive trial by jury, self-government and an Australian Confederation. Articulating a distinctly Australian identity to the world, he has a strong claim to be a founding father of modern Australia. Wentworth's great personal achievements have been largely forgotten—until now. Andrew Tink, who for 19 years sat under the looming presence of Wentworth's portrait in the New South Wales Parliament, has turned his gaze to this great man of Australian history. The result is a biography that is long overdue and a fascinating and richly rewarding insight into the life of this complex man and the young nation he helped to create.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
