This is the story of two men, a young doctor who emigrated from England in 1833. His eldest son (Lord Casey's father), was born in Tasmania in 1846.
Recollections of an Australian statesman's wartime service as Australian Minister in Washington, Minister of State in the Middle East, and Governor of Bengal.
Fourteen telegrams (9 between Winston Churchill and John Curtin, 4 between Richard Casey and John Curtin, 1 from the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs to the Commonwealth Government, New Zealand Government and the Government of South Africa) relating to Winston Churchill's appointment of Richard Casey in 1942 to the British War Cabinet and to British Minister of State in the Middle East.
This book, with its illuminating introduction and notes, traces the evolution of Casey's 'delicate' role as Australian Minister to the United States during a critical time in Australia's history. It reveals Casey treading a fine diplomatic tightrope for America's support of Britain and Australia in the war, without risking aggravation of America's many powerful isolationists.
