註釋A fascinating and enigmatic man, Davis McCaughey was a theologian equally at home in the secular world. As Governor of Victoria (1986–1992), deputy chancellor of Melbourne University and master of the prestigious Ormond College for twenty years. McCaughey played a ground-breaking role in Australian public life. Sarah Martin’s compelling biography explores the character and achievements of a man who transcended his deeply conservative roots in Belfast to champion radical student politics. A pivotal figure in the creation of the Uniting Church in Australia, McCaughey was also regarded by many, including Manning Clark, as one of the greatest public speakers of his era.
