A Biography of Clyde Cameron' (Kent Town, Wakefield Press, 1999); colour-pictorial card covers; a fine copy. 'I wanted to be able to remind myself of happenings and comments in a way that could not be challenged. What I recorded had to be objective and completely accurate. To this end I took notes at the time and often excused myself to write down important conversations exactly as they were spoken. To have diarised in any other way would have been a pointless exercise in self-deception' (from Cameron's introduction). [3 items].
