Santamaria: A Most Unusual Man by Henderson, Gerard
ISBN: 9780522868586 PUBLISHER: The Miegunyah Press FORMAT: Hardback PAGES: 452 PUBLICATION DATE: 3.08.2015 DIMENSIONS: 22.9 x 15.2 x 3.5 centimetres 1.8 pounds
DESCRIPTION: B.A. Santamaria was one of the most controversial Australians of our time. His sphere of influence ranged across the nation's political and social landscape. Santamaria, an ardent anti-Communist and devout Catholic, was fiercely intelligent and a natural leader, polarising the community into loyal followers and committed opponents. In the 1940s Santamaria created the Movement in Australia, an anti-Communist organisation. He was a key figure in the tumultuous split in the 1950s of the Australian Labour Party and subsequently had much influence as a public commentator on his television program Point of View and his weekly column in the Australian. Santamaria had a strong social conscience and spent much of his time helping the underprivileged, and although he began as an advocate and champion of the Catholic Church, he spent much of his last decades opposing some of its activities. By the 1990s B.A. Santamaria was the only person still active in politics who had been involved in public life before World War II and in the immediate postwar years. MUP published Your Most Obedient Servant, a collection of Santamaria's letters edited by Patrick Morgan. Henderson's volume complements this text.
