Professor Jenny Hocking on the Palace letters Talking Independence

Join us as we speak to Professor Jenny Hocking: the woman who led and won the battle for the National Archives of Australia to release the “Palace letters” about the dismissal of Gough Whitlam in 1975. The letters not only revealed far more royal involvement in Australian politics than Professor Hocking had imagined, with her book The Palace Letters is described as a detective story and courtroom drama with political intrigue and a royal cover-up. And yes, it’s non-fiction.
