The Bathurst Advocate
''The Bathurst Advocate'' was a weekly English language broadsheet newspaper published in Bathurst, New South Wales, Australia.

In reporting the libel action in the newspaper, Isaacs re-published the v ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
