He went on to become Rupert Murdoch’s eminence grise, was editorial director of News Limited and played a major role in the establishment of The Australian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis powerful columns opposing Australia’s participation in the Vietnam War were extremely influential. Yet this prominent journalist, so close to the making of history, remains virtually unknown in his own country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this fascinating, readable and timely biography, Peter Cox has researched widely to reveal a man who loved his family and his homeland yet often fiercely criticised New Zealand, a man who was at the forefront of great events yet remained private and reserved, a man who could be serious yet also funny and kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDouglas Brass was as fine a writer in his field as his more famous contemporaries. In Tunis is Mad Tonight along neglected New Zealander takes his deserved place in the spotlight and an extraordinary life is revealed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"author-info\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"author-bio\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"author-bio\"\u003e264 pages\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"author-bio\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp data-v-1d2b534b=\"\" class=\"product-keynote\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-book-details__desc is-short\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"EmmasatOxford","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45689279971482,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/9024\/8009\/files\/tunis-is-mad-tonight-large_9781991103697.jpg?v=1745364182","url":"https:\/\/emmasatoxford.pro\/products\/tunis-is-mad-tonight-peter-cox","provider":"EmmasatOxford","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
