Big Jim: Crusading Territory Newspaper Editor, Jim Bowditch

A biography of a crusading journalist and editor who forged a reputation for taking on the causes of those in need fearlessly and often in daring ways. His campaigns helped shape the nation's attitude on such issues as the White Australia policy, indentured labour, Northern Territory political reform and Aboriginal advancement and Land Rights. It offers an insight into a man who, while flawed, was a man of courage and flair, and a battler for the underdog. Apart from covering the news, his exploits often became headline news around Australia.
