Seventy Five Years of Service Rotary in Australia, Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands 1921-1996
Dr. Paul Henningham’s book is an elegantly written story of fellowship, unselfish dedication, achievement and plain goodness. It is highlighted by biographies of Australia’s three Presidents and one President Elect of Rotary International and by informative glimpses of many other outstanding Australian Rotarians as they play their varying roles in the Rotary story. The book will be an invaluable source of factual information for all who are interested in the story of Rotary International in our part of the world. For me, its outstanding quality is that, no doubt because of Paul Henningham’s own experiences as a distinguished serving Rotarian and past district governor, the spirit of Rotary shines through its pages.
