Commissioner Kerr: An Individuality by George Pitt-Lewis is a biography that explores the life of Sir John Kerr, an Australian lawyer and judge who served as the 18th Governor-General of Australia from 1974 to 1977. The book provides a detailed account of Kerr's life, beginning with his childhood in Sydney and his education at the University of Sydney and Oxford University. It then traces his career as a barrister and judge, including his controversial decision to dismiss Prime Minister Gough Whitlam in 1975, which led to a constitutional crisis in Australia. The book also delves into Kerr's personal life, including his marriage to Alison Worthington and his relationships with other key figures in Australian politics. Overall, Commissioner Kerr: An Individuality offers a fascinating insight into the life of one of Australia's most controversial and influential figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
