About This Item
Sydney: Harper / HarperCollins, 2022. Paperback octavo, good condition, colour photos, single black & white photo, spine & covers little creased, rear hinge slightly split (pages firm), minor edgewear cover corner tips. 306 pp. After embarking on his political career as a student, Joe Hockey worked tirelessly to rise through the ranks of the Liberal Party, learning pivotal lessons along the way and earning himself one of Australiaâs toughest jobs, Australian Treasurer. In September 2015, his promising political career was brought to a dramatic end when Malcolm Turnbull successfully challenged Prime Minister Tony Abbott for the Liberal leadership. Turnbull offered Hockey a new role: Australian Ambassador to the United States. This memoir is an honest and sometimes very funny insider view of his role as the Ambassador during the final year of the Obama administration, the triumph and chaos of the Trump presidency, and then on to the shared future of Australia and the United States under President Joe Biden and beyond.
