John McEwen, thirty-seven years a politician, twenty-three days a Prime Minister and always a farmer, was an extraordinary mix of a man. His staff revered him and his adversaries feared him. There was no one, friend or foe, who did not respect him. Orphaned at seven and raised in poverty, this self-educated soldier-settler overcame difficult beginnings to dominate the Australian political arena for twenty years. The success of the Liberal-Country Party coalition throughout the fifties and sixties is largely attributed to McEwen's strength and influence. Towering and formidable in both stature and personality, Black Jack's turbulent political career was never without controversy. His succession to the Prime Ministership in 1967, after the disappearance of Holt, followed one of the most notorious episodes of Australian political history when McEwen refused to serve under McMahon. Black Jack's commitment to developing Australian trade won him international respect and his influence on Australian economic and trade policy is enduring.

Toronto has over 600 public outdoor sculptures, works of art that provide a sense of the rich variety of life and work in the city, its peoples, cultures and aspirations. Interest in commissioning public sculpture began slowly in the nineteenth and early twentieth century, but increased rapidly after the 1950s.This is a book about the sculptures and how they disclose the city to itself. Creating Memory’s two introductory sections examine the factors behind this expansion over time and the changes in style as one generation of sculptors succeeded another. It looks at the reasons behind the changes as sculptures were conceived, sculpted and erected. More than 10 categories of sculptures are defined and discussed, including Founding the City, Natural Environment, Immigration, Ethnic Groups, Economic Activities, Disaster and Calamity, War And Conflict, Leaders, Ordinary Citizens, Community Life, and Works of the Imagination.

John 'Black Jack' McEwen, leader of the federal Country Party and deputy Prime Minister, was Australia's most significant and longest serving Minister for Trade. His policies, known as 'McEwenism, ' forged the nation's post Second World War economic boom ushering in an era of unprecedented full employment and prosperity for all Australians. They assisted in building a modern industrial economy, a truly independent nation and underpinned Australia's successful post war immigration program. As Prime Minister following Harold Holt's tragic death in 1967, McEwen provided the calm and stable leadership the nation needed. 'McEwenism, ' derided by the Right and dismantled by Left, is now being recognised for its pragmatic approach to successful economic and social policy. Now, in these times, it deserves our careful attention. This book challenges the assumptions of 'McEwenism', who 'Black Jack' was and what he achieved. And despite his legacy on our great nation, why he is a forgotten giant of Australian political history - is this because he was from the Country Party, or simply because he was from the country? Bridget McKenzie: hailing from northern Victoria, Senator Bridget McKenzie was elected National Party Senator for Victoria in 2010. A graduate of Deakin University, she has served on numerous parliamentary committees, held several ministerial cabinet posts including serving as Australia's first female Minister for Agriculture, and is currently The Nationals Leader in the Senate. Senator McKenzie is passionate about regional Australia and ensuring its immense contribution to Australia continues.
