Lazarus Rising by John Howard: He has been one of Australia's most controversial prime ministers, leading the Liberal Party to victory over four elections and becoming the second-longest-serving PM in the nation's history. John Winston Howard is the face of the modern Liberal Party, an economic radical and social conservative whose ideology has united many Australians and divided just as many others. But what people often forget is that long before he became Prime Minister, John Howard was an idealistic politician. This book looks back over 30 years in politics, and at the changes Howard has seen both inside and outside the Government during that time. Rudd's Way by Nicholas Stuart: Rudd's Way presents the first in-depth analysis of the way that Kevin Rudd's government worked and why Labor eventually decided its leader had to be removed. Stuart argues that, more than under any previous government, the policies and direction of Australia over the period from November 2007 to June 2010 were set by just one man - Prime Minister Kevin Rudd - until he finally overreached himself and threatened to lead the party to electoral oblivion. The background events and policy blunders that led to Rudd's fall are described here in gripping detail, until we come to the final cataclysmic moment when the prime minister realised he'd been abandoned by the very team he'd led to government.
