'The Enigmatic Mr Deakin' by political historian Judith Brett wins the 2018 National Biography Award

Judges had this to say: “The Enigmatic Mr Deakin is a beautifully researched and satisfyingly rounded picture of an intriguing prime minister’s public and private lives, revealing just how intricately connected the two can be. It gives rare insight into the intellectual and emotional life of a political figure, aspects we seldom acknowledge in politicians today.”
