ex: Harry -Potter will return results without the word 'Potter'.
If you use 'AND' between two words, then both of those words will be present in the search results.
ex: Harry AND Potter will return results with both 'Harry' and 'Potter'.

OverviewThe dismissal of Gough Whitlam's Labor government on November 11, 1975, was stunning news to most Australians, whichever side of the political divide they inhabited. Many people on first hearing that the Governor-General had sacked the Prime Minister, and appointed the Opposition leader as caretaker in his place, simply refused to believe it. Yet, the ALP was defeated at the election that followed, and one of the most dramatic periods of political reform the nation had ever experienced abruptly ended. In this entertaining collection, thirty prominent Australians recall the events of November 11, 1975, and the days and weeks that followed. From Bob Ellis to Bob Hawke, Lindy Morrison to Frank Moorhouse, Michelle Grattan to David Kemp, they take stock of those times with a mixture of passion, pride, regret, scepticism and humour.
