Unholy Fury: Whitlam and Nixon at War in Bloomington, MN

In the early 1970s, two titans of Australian and American politics—Prime Minister Gough Whitlam and President Richard Nixon—clashed over the end of the Vietnam war and the shape of a new Asia.

Drawing on sensational new evidence from once top-secret American and Australian records,
Unholy Fury
brings to life the clash between the two leaders and their competing visions of the world.
