Rebel with a cause : you can't keep a bloody Lambie down - my story from soldier to senator and beyond
Lambie, Jacqui, 1971-2018
Book
Jacqui Lambie is a senator but not a politician. She's passionate, fiery, forthright and combative - traits that saw her re-elected to the Senate in the 2016 election by her Tasmanian constituents. Her story of serving her country yet having to battle the army and the DVA for compensation over a crippling injury sustained as a soldier, of experiencing and overcoming addiction and depression, of raising two children as a single mother, has resonated not just with her voters, but with the wider Australian public. Now she tells the full story of her life in a memoir that is as fascinating, honest, surprising and headline-grabbing as the woman herself.
