AuthorMacintyre, Stuart, 1947-DescriptionThis is the story of Paddy Troy, trade union militant. It describes the industry in which he worked and the community in which he lived. It recounts the life of a fiery, compassionate man who devoted his life to the cause of the workers. By tracing the experiences that formed him - as shearer's rouseabout, seaman, unemployed battler, miner and prisoner - it offers an insight into the making of an Australian communist. Paddy Troy's story is also part of the rich history of Fremantle, and provides an insight into the history of the Australian labour movement and the politics of the industrial relations systemImprintSydney, N.S.W.
