Coles and Co., his three terms as Lord Mayor of Melbourne, his service at Gallipoli and on the Western Front, his pivotal years in Federal Parliament as an Independent who held the balance of power and crossed the floor in 1941 to install John Curtin as Prime Minister, and his subsequent public service chairing the Commonwealth Rationing Commission, the War Damage Commission, the Australian National Airlines Commission, and the Melbourne Olympic Games Committee, capturing both the outstanding achievements and the personal qualities of one of the most consequential Australians of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48810569072859,"sku":"2026600000175-SECONDHAND","price":35.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e0078218-89d3-4b99-b0b8-cb446922093e.png?v=1779805370","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026600000175-secondhand-arthur-william-coles-with-zeal-and-integrity","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
