The Cronulla Riots: The Inside Story

Tony Thomas, Quadrant Writer and Author.

"Exploring the untold stories of the Cronulla Riots, this book delves into the perspectives of NSW Police Minister Carl Scully and Assistant Commissioner Mark Goodwin, the key figures tasked with restoring order during the chaos. While the riots are often cited in discussions of Australian racism, the authors challenge the notion that they were solely driven by Caucasian xenophobia. Through in-depth interviews and behind-the-scenes insights, the book provides a more nuanced account of the events, examining the complex dynamics that led to the unrest and the law enforcement efforts that ultimately quelled it."
