In 1949, a young Terence Murray Lewis graduated from the police academy, ready to start his career in law enforcement.…
Over the next four decades, he rose to the pinnacle of power as the knighted Commissioner of Police in Queensland before his spectacular downfall and imprisonment after the Fitzgerald Inquiry in the late 1980s. Three Crooked Kings follows Lewis’ journey through the ranks, as he becomes part of the so-called Rat Pack with detectives Glen Hallahan and Tony Murphy under the guiding influence of Commissioner Frank Bischof. The alleged suicide of prostitute and brothel madam Shirley Brifman in the early 1970s provides the turning point for a culture that reigned unchecked for several decades. It was part of a grand narrative teeming with murder, pay-offs, political machinations, drug heists, assisted suicides, police in-fighting and a complicated system of corruption that ultimately collapsed under its own weight. Based on unprecedented interviews with Terry Lewis and access to his personal papers, Three Crooked Kings is the missing piece in the puzzle of the story of Queensland’s endemic generational corruption.By Rosamund Stone Zander, Benjamin Zander. 2002

of their dynamic partnership, the book joins together Ben's extraordinary talent as a mover and shaker, teacher, and communicator, with Rosamund Stone Zander's genius for creating innovative paradigms for personal and professional fulfillment. In lively counterpoint, the authors provide us with a deep sense of the powerful role that the notion of possibility can play in every aspect of our lives.The Zanders' deceptively simple practices are based on two premises: that life is composed as a story and that, with new definitions, much more is possible than people ordinarily think.By Patrick Lindsay. 2003
"In many ways the Digger is a study in contradictions: he doesn’t crave war yet he will fight with unequalled…
ferocity; he hates spit and polish but will hold his discipline under the most trying conditions; he is tough yet compassionate; he hates his enemy until he surrenders, then he is generous in victory; he despises histrionics but will cry unashamedly at the loss of a mate..." 'The Digger' is a key piece of the complex jigsaw puzzle that makes up 'The Australian'. But who is the Digger exactly, and what elements have gone into forging his spirit? Australian soldiers have had an impact in world conflicts far in excess of their numbers. They've won acclaim for their fighting prowess and bravery, while retaining their larrikin spirit, their compassion and their strong sense of mateship. Those who fought in the trenches of Gallipoli, the Somme and Ypres have an immediate kinship with the Diggers who followed in their footsteps in North Africa and New Guinea, and later in Korea, Vietnam, East Timor, Afghanistan and Iraq. We are justifiably proud of the heritage that our Diggers have bequeathed us.
