David Hickie’s 1985 trade paperback The Prince And The Premier: The Story Of Perce Galea Bob Askin And Crime offers a detailed non‑fiction look at a pivotal chapter in Australian political history, blending biography, true‑crime narrative and political analysis. The book examines the intertwined lives of Perce Galea, Bob Askin and the criminal underworld that shaped their careers.

Targeted at both young adults and adult readers, the volume sits comfortably in the historical, political and true‑story categories, making it a strong addition for collectors of Australian history, politics and crime biographies. Its focus on Australian political parties and true‑crime events also appeals to fans of modern and contemporary history.

The paperback shows light scuffing on the cover and mild foxing on the front and back inner covers as well as the first and last pages, with a small stamp on the front paper. Pages are yellowed with age but remain clean, tidy and free of any writing, and the binding is tight. The book comes from a smoke‑free home and bears a personalisation note.

As a vintage 1985 edition, this Australian‑origin title is a solid find for anyone building a collection of antiquarian biographies, political history or true‑crime narratives.
