Book description
Deputy sheriff, spear-carrier to the chief, loyal servant. Is there another way to approach Australia's alliance with the United States? Fatal Attraction looks at where our most important alliance has gone wrong. It is written to enhance, not to undermine it, but it sounds a warning: we are a "different kind of nation from the Americans, with something more to give the world than a pale version of the virtues that have made the United States great." [Publisher's website]
