1 1 y separately published work icon The Man Time Forgot : The Life and Times of John Christian Watson, Australia's First Labor Prime Minister Al Grassby , Silvia Ordonez , Sydney : Pluto Press , 1999 13583794 1999 single work biography

'Al Grassby, the flamboyant previous Minister in the Whitlam Government, and Sylvia Ordonez have written the first biography of the first Labor Prime Minister. Today John Cristian Watson is 'The Man Time Forgot'. His life tells us much about the transition from the nineteenth century world of a global British Empire to the creation of a federated Australian nation state.' 

1 2 y separately published work icon Six Australian Battlefields Al Grassby , Marji Hill , St Leonards : Allen and Unwin , 1998 7953009 1998 single work criticism

'Generations of Australians have been taught that no wars have ever been fought on Australian soil. Yet as many as 20,000 black Australians died fighting a war of resistance that lasted for more than a century.'

Six Australian Battlefields presents an alternative view of history. Through detailed accounts of four great clashes, it confronts the reader with the realities of life on the Australian frontier. And through a retelling of the stories of Vinegar Hill and Eureka it reminds the reader of the central place of resistance in our past.' (Source: Publisher's website)
