Never before, since the Federation of the Australian Colonies in 1901, had the Constitution of Australia come under such intense scrutiny as occurred in the lead-up to the republican Referendum of 1999. Just as there were differences of opinion amongst republicans on what form an Australian republic should take, there were different perceptions amongst monarchists on what formed the modern day structures of Australia's Constitutional monarchy. In this collection of speeches and articles, Philip Benwell has attempted to explain the various interpretations not just of the Constitution itself but also of "The Crown of the United Kingdom", under which the Australian Federation has been transformed. It is the only known work of its kind and a valuable contribution to scholarship not only for its in-depth examination of the meaning of "The Crown" particularly within Australia's Constitution, but also as a research tool for future occasions.
