Ministers, Mandarins and Diplomats: is
an excellent book
which covers the early history of the department of foreign affairs.
I got it in the National Library\'s bookshop a few years ago when I was searching for the original draft constitution that Inglis-Clark wrote. Apparently it had a Bill of Rights in it that Samuel Griffiths struck out. Inglis-Clark was a romanticist for the American constitution too, so it would be interesting to see what he wrote.
The national library didnt have it, and didnt know what I was talking about.
