Gordon Samuels: Looking Back is Roderic Campbell’s concise biography of the trail-blazing judge who became one of Australia’s most respected university chancellors. In 160 illustrated pages, the book traces Samuels’ journey from wartime Sydney to the bench and ultimately to the helm of UNSW, offering a vivid snapshot of Australian legal and educational history.

Campbell’s narrative balances personal anecdote with cultural insight, making this 2005 UNSW Archives paperback a lively entry point for readers interested in Australian biography, true stories of public service, or the evolution of higher education Down Under. The text is clean, tight and unmarked, ready for immediate enjoyment without dog-eared distractions.

Physical collectors will appreciate the smooth spine and crisp pages; only a faint spotting on the top edge and light cover scuffing hint at its previous life. From a smoke-free home, this very good copy invites you to explore the legacy of Gordon Samuels without the premium price of a new release.
