Over a parliamentary career spanning 17 years, three ministerial portfolios and five party leaders, Baume was increasingly pitted against his own party room. In A Dissident Liberal: The Political Writings of Peter Baume, we learn of personal threats, crises, constitutional confrontation and the tension between conservatism and classical liberalism—and between ideology and toeing the party line. This collection of personal observations, speeches and commentaries on contentious policy issues presents a valuable resource for students of Australian political history UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/32983/1/578879.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/32983/1/578879.pdf UR - https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/32983/1/578879.pdf UR - https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/31638 ER -
