Biography & Memoir History Australiana
Gordon Samuels: Looking Back – A University Chancellor Reflects by Roderic Campbell is an illustrated biography that offers insight into Australian higher education and cultural history. Published in 2005 by UNSW Archives, the paperback presents a concise memoir of the former university chancellor, appealing to both young adults and adult readers interested in autobiography and education.
The 160‑page volume is in very good condition, with a smooth spine, tight binding and clean, tidy pages. Light scuffing on the cover and minor spotting on the top page edge are the only signs of use, and the book comes from a smoke‑free home.
This historical non‑fiction title is a solid addition for collectors of Australian biographies, memoirs and educational studies, and its illustrated format adds visual interest without compromising the text’s readability.
