Folk singer and folk music collector, writer, painter, journalist,
art critic, whalerman, sheep station roustabout, Marxist, and much
more - this is the story of A. L. (Bert) Lloyd's extraordinary
life. A. L. Lloyd played a key part in the folk music revival of
the 1950s and 60s, but that is only part of his story. Dave Arthur
documents how Lloyd became a member of the Communist Party,
forceful antifascist, trade unionist and an important part of
left-wing culture from the early 1930s to his death in 1982.
Following his return from Australia as a 21-year-old, self-educated
agricultural labourer, he was at the heart of the most important
left-wing movements and highly respected for his knowledge in
various fields. Dave Arthur recounts the life of a creative,
passionate and life-loving Marxist, and in so doing provides a
social history of a turbulent twentieth century.
