Author(s) W D Rubinstein AbstractBok Review: Sir Raphael Cilento (18931985), whose enigmatic career has puzzled observers in his lifetime and ever since. It is good finally to have a complete biography of this man. However, it must be said that the present one, by an author who served as Army Education-Officer in the Darwin area in 1943, and also came to know Cilento well in the last decade of his life, is far too apologetic for my taste, although it does go a long way to clarifying the life story of this man. I must record my own bewilderment on encountering Cilento, a right-wing extremist with strong overtones of anti-Semitism, when researching my history of the post-war Jewish community. and was glad to be able to read a full account of his career.
