Sir John Kerr was Governor-General Australia at the time of Australia's greatest constitutional crisis since Federation. The dramatic autobiography traces the complete story of the events leading up to 11 November, 1975 when Sir John Kerr exercised controversial reserve powers of the Crown to dismiss the Prime Minister, Mr. Gough Whitlam, and his Ministry and commissioned the leader of the Opposition, Mr. Malcolm Fraser, to form a caretaker Government. This action plunged the nation into the furore of debate.
