AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The intriguing title of A Book of Doors gives nothing of the contents away. Anne Richards’ memoir is situated during the turbulent historical and political events of the anti-Vietnam War protests, the anti-apartheid campaigns against the visiting South African Springboks Rugby team, and the beginning of the Black Rights movement in Australia. It takes place in Queensland, then a police state ruled (rather than governed) by Premier Joh Bjelke-Petersen, where police violence against protestors was legendary.'  (Introduction)
