Appo: Recollections of a Member of the Sydney Push (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781921364099)

Appo was a poet, author and editor, driven by a love of language and a desire that Australians might better understand their country and themselves. He worked as an Argentine ant killer, a farm worker and a tram conductor, before starting editorial work for various publishers, including Sydney University Press. From there, his role as editor of the Australian Encyclopedia and his involvement in the Australian Labor Party carved out a place for Appo in the cultural and political landscape of Sydney.
