About the book
RED tracks the lives of two families of Australian political idealists, their motives, expectations and gradual disillusionment.
These twentieth-century radicals and their friends, many of them communist, were journalists, artists, feminists, architects, politicians, teachers and scholars.
Stephen Moline grew up among these radicals. He kept a notebook.
Bill Wood was an inspiration to the next generation of university communists, of whom I was one. I hope ‘Rosstherne’ gets a mention in the book. Looking forward to my copy (now on order). terry@savagedemocracy.net

Terry, Rostherne is the scene of many episodes and I look forward to your thoughts on the book. – Steve
