[PACIFICISM]. The Peacemaker. An Australian venture in reconstruction. Vol.9 No.1 [to No.12].
Melbourne, January to December 1947. Thin folio, 12 issues together in contemporary boards carefully titled by hand in yellow; each issue is four pages. ¶ The editor's own copy, inscribed “Personal copy of G. Anthony Bishop”. A complete and not uninteresting year of this uncommon and quite brave paper. Being a declared pacifist through the war years must have taken great courage and it can't have been much easier just after. The first issue begins with an article on pacificism and tribal warfare among the aborigines, there is a fair bit on the proposed rocket range, on conditions in Germany and Japan, the bomb, the Defence Projects Protection Act.
