Raging Partners: Two Worlds, One Friendship pairs Australian journalists Diana Plater and Ollie Smith in a frank 2000 biography about bridging cultural divides. Their intertwined memoirs trace how a city feminist and an Aboriginal man turn newsroom rivalry into enduring partnership, offering young-adult and adult readers a real-world lesson in collaboration.
Signed by the author directly on the front free endpaper, this illustrated Magabala Books paperback feels personal from the first page. Expect gentle foxing on the opening leaves and page edges—common in Australian titles of this era—yet the 240-page trade edition remains tight and perfectly readable.
Ideal for collectors of signed biographies, women’s studies, or Indigenous Australian voices, the book adds depth to any cultural-heritage shelf. Its compact 7.8" x 5.1" format and generous illustrations invite underlining, gifting, or classroom discussion on journalism, identity, and reconciliation.
