From the dusty goldfields of Kalgoorlie to the corridors of international libertarianism, Ron Manners built more than just mining companies, he built movements. A fifth-generation prospector, Manners wasn't content with striking gold underground; he struck ideological gold by challenging the intellectual status quo.
From the dusty goldfields of Kalgoorlie to the corridors of international libertarianism, Ron Manners built more than just mining companies, he built movements. A fifth-generation prospector, Manners wasn't content with striking gold underground; he struck ideological gold by challenging the intellectual status quo, founding the Mannkal Economic Education Foundation and mentoring thousands of young minds across Australia.
Damon Kitney's new biography of Manners' life, Heroic Humility charts his evolution from industrious teenager to outspoken capitalist, exposing the personal convictions and public battles that reshaped the legacy of his century-old family business, built a gold mining colossus named Croesus and shaped a lifetime of challenging bureaucracy and mediocrity.
Candid, compelling and brimming with the entrepreneurial energy of its subject, this is the definitive story of a true legend in Australian business and civic life.
