A Journey Through The Archive - The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Library

Описание: The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Library (BHPML), as part of the University of South Australia Library and The Bob Hawke Prime Ministerial Centre presented a public talk and exhibition as part of the 2019 South Australia History Festival.

The BHPML was established in 1997 and comprises archival records, personal papers, published materials and memorabilia in all formats relevant to Hawke’s life and time in public office. This presentation will explore the wealth of unique items held by the University of South Australia which will contribute to a deeper understanding of the man and the politician.

Troy Bramston, a senior writer with The Australian, and prodigious author of political biographies and commentaries, will also discuss Hawke’s legacy and how the BHPML is contributing to research for his upcoming biography on Hawke.
