Congratulations to Robert Bowker and Matthew Jordan on the publication of Australia and the Suez Crisis

Congratulations to Robert Bowker and Matthew Jordan on the publication of Australia and the Suez Crisis 1950 – 1957 (DFAT). Commissioned by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for the Documents on Australian Foreign Policy (DAFP) series, this volume is the first comprehensive documentary survey of Australia’s involvement in the Suez Crisis of the 1950s. The volume is based on a thorough review of archival materials and includes many items not previously accessible or discussed in the historical literature. The volume provides the evidence to assess the contributions of Prime Minister R. G. Menzies, his government and departmental officials at a time of difficult choices between strategic connections with the United States and historical, cultural and economic links with the United Kingdom. Congratulations, Robert and Matthew!
