This revised edition contains many of the original entries but also
brings the public record up-to-date with his post-1968 reflections on
Parliament, government, the Liberal Party, law, and the environment.
Most significantly, this book documents Turner's prominent ongoing
battle against the Free Trade Agreement with the United States that
culminated in the 1988 federal election; the 20th anniversary of this
election was marked by the Centre for the Study of Democracy with a
conference at Queen's University in October 2008 in honour of the 17th
prime minister. Mrs Geills M. Turner, a professional photographer, now
retired, has contributed a selection of her personal family photographs
to illustrate this volume.
