James Gobbo

Opis

Offering insight into the Italian immigration experience, this autobiography traces the life of Sir James Gobbo, whose family moved from a town near Venice to Melbourne, Australia in 1938. The account highlights Gobbo's achievements--from Rhodes Scholar and successful barrister to Supreme Court judge and governor of Victoria--and describes his roles in immigration reform, in Australia's multicultural policies, and in philanthropic ventures. Political and personal, this narrative will appeal to those interested in Australian legal history as well as in the migrant experience.
