Book review - "The things we did last summer : an election journal" by Bob Ellis (1983)

 Some excellent lively writing. It's padded out with interviews, not from Ellis, but say one Fraser did on the ABC. There's also extracts from Ellis' plays like The James Dossier and A Very Good Year. This would be better off at half the length because there is some marvelous writing on Hawke, Hayden, etc. Some good stuff and a lot of padding.
