Hancock may no longer be described as 'Australia's most distinguished historian', he has some enduring claims to our attention. No other Australian historian - and few elsewhere - can match his 'span', to use one of his watchwords. Hancock was a major historian in four or five fields, who himself made history by going on a mission to Uganda for the British government in 1954 to mediate the future of Buganda after its ruler had been exiled. He was also, from a room in the Cabinet Office in Whitehall, the editor of a vast historical project: the writing of a series of accounts of BritHistoriansAustraliaBiographyElectronic books.Historians994.04092Davidson Jim1942-962162MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910480049503321A three cornered life2181449UNINA
