Ever since the First Fleet dropped anchor, Australia's ports have
been our opening to the world. They are also the breeding ground
for many of Australia's most notorious criminals, and a magnet for
local and overseas criminal syndicates. WATERFRONT is the story of
the crimes, the politics, the characters and the corruption in our
nation's ports. From the time of Phillip and Bligh to today, from
the gold rushes to modern-day drug smuggling, a criminal element
has always found ways to profit from the rise and dominance of
waterfront unions. After a century of Royal Commissions, reports,
denials and crackdowns, crime and wrongdoing in Australia's ports
remains organised, entrenched and incredibly profitable.
Investigative journalist and former police detective Duncan McNab
lifts the lid on the intriguing and chequered history of
Australia's waterfront.
