This is the story of Paddy Troy (1908-1978), trade union militant. It describes the industry in which he worked and the community in which he lived. It recounts the life of a fiery, compassionate man who devoted his life to the cause of the workers.

Tracing the experiences that formed him - as a shearer's rouseabout, seamen, unemployment officer, miner and prisoner - it offers an insight into the making of an Australian communist.

A book to intrigue anyone interested in the history of the Australian labour movement and the politics of the industrial relations system.
