Funded Activity Summary

The Enigmatic Mr Deakin. A new single volume biography of Alfred Deakin will make this most intriguing and influential of Australia's early Prime Ministers available to contemporary readers (including politicians, policy makers, journalists, teachers, broadcasters, and the politically engaged public). It will re-enliven his place in Australians' political memory and imagination so that knowledge of his achievements and limitations will inform the choices facing contemporary Australia and enlarge their understanding of the possibilities of politics. It will also provide the basis for further exploration of his life and influence in other media, such as film, television and radio.
