Product Overview

Each year, as part of the democratic process all over Australia, local councillors meet to elect a mayor to lead their council for the next year. Rats in the Ranks (Robin Anderson and Bob Connolly, 1996) tells the story of this process in the Leichhardt Council area of Sydney in 1994.
