Robin Gollan

Robin "Bob" Gollan (8 December 1917 – 15 October 2007) was an Australian historian noted for having written the first history of a trade union. According to Stuart Macintyre, this began studies in labour history in Australia. Others have argued that Gollan began the "second generation" of labour history. Along with his former student and colleague, Eric Fry (1921-2007), Gollan established the Australian Society for the Study of Labour History and its journal, Labour History, in 1961.
