This handsome, boxed, two-volume set tells South Australia's parliamentary history from the colony's earliest European days until modern times. 'In its 100 years of responsible government South Australia can point to a chronicle of achievement of which it may be proud. It has been a century crowded with accomplishment which will be a source of inspiration to face the years ahead with.' - Sir Thomas Playford, Premier of South Australia, 1957 'I commend this volume to all those interested in both the past and future of one of South Australia's defining institutions, and in the continuing ability of Parliament to reflect the wishes of the people and to bring about the common good.' - Mike Rann, Premier of South Australia, 2008
