Graham Freudenberg has led an amazing life and A Figure of Speech is his life, in his own words.

From his campaigns working on speeches for Gough Whitlam and more recently, for Bob Carr, A Figure of Speech is a landmark book tracing the political and social history of post war Australia through the words of Australia's most prolific political wordsmith.
