They were replaced by ordinary citizens selected at random by a new computer nick-named RADO.
Within a few years Uncle Sam followed suit. With a rising tide of indiscretions and scandals rocking Canberra, public opinion from Perth to Parramatta demanded similar change. the new system was working well in the UK and the US. Why shouldn't it work in the 'Lucky Country' too?
The Governor General, Sir John McLeod, flew discreetly to London for a secret audience with her Majesty. Australia would never be the same again.

As one who has worked around the periphery of politics in Australia I enjoyed Mark's whimsical take on the local scene. With recent events including the sacking of a PM and a hung parliament, perhaps "Her Place in the Sun" may be the way of things to come. A very enjoyable read, but don't sail your ocean liner between Rottnest and Garden Islands- its full of reefs! Oh, I'm from Western Australia. |

It has good content (Harland skilfully maintains the interest of the reader), is a good 'riveting' read. I really enjoyed the whole trilogy as much at the start as the finish. A worthwhile purchase! |
