About This Item
Melbourne: Miegunyah / Melbourne University Press / State Library of Victoria, 2007. 1st ed.. Hardback thick octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in good dustjacket), black & white photos, corners boards lightly bumped, minor edgewear jacket (spine ends & corners little worn, few scratches). Heavy (1.2 Kg), and extra postage may be requested to destinations outside Australia. 575 pp. B. A. Santamaria, Your Most Obedient Servant: Selected Letters 1938 - 1996, edited by Patrick Morgan (2007). This collection of letters spanning 60 years shows facets of Santamaria's personality and activities not previously disclosed. The letters are both personal and professional. He speaks frankly on matters of state, church and family, and he is revealed as a person more subtle in his views than his public persona would suggest. The letters offer a rare glimpse into a mind that was preoccupied for more than six decades with world events and ideological controversies. B. A. Santamaria remained a unique and influential conservative Irish-Catholic force in Australian and Victorian politics for more than 50 years.
