Biography: general, Memoirs, Prose: non-fiction, History, Social & cultural history, Sports & outdoor recreation

The same mixture of humour and thoughtfulness that readers loved in A MAN'S GOT TO HAVE A HOBBY is here in abundance, in THAT'D BE RIGHT William McInnes looks back at Australia over the last 30 years.

'a funny and clever reminiscence about what happened in Australia over the past 30 years ... Told with a delightful insight and sense of whimsy.' Daily Telegraph

In THAT'D BE RIGHT, much loved actor and author William McInnes gives his personal view on the things we love sport, families, politics and the greatest spectator sport of them all, an election campaign. He takes the momentous landmarks that fascinate us, such as Melbourne Cup Day, Grand Final wins and election night parties, and brings them into our back yards. He also writes about early morning swimming carnivals, lawnmowers and sitting in the stands at the cricket with his son.

THAT'D BE RIGHT is a biographical trip through Australian life with lots of yarns along the way.
