The Reluctant Republic

This book, by the former Australian Republican Movement Chairperson, goes over the history of republicanism in Australia but mainly focuses on what needs to be done to create a republic.

It reviews the main options, explains his choices and sets out a framework for moving to a republic. While some of the details differ for New Zealand, much of the analysis could equally be applied here. In the absence of a similar book for New Zealand read this one, as it is a good mix of technical and practical detail written for a broad audience.
