      ab: Why Holt decided to ignore his health problems and enter waters that were notoriously dangerous for even the fittest of swimmers has always been hard to fathom but - in what speaks to the opportunity that biography provides - Ross Walker's I Harold Holt: Always One Step Further i offers a convincing and artful answer. Alongside an empathetic and expansive reading of the facts at hand, these allow Walker to add depth and detail to the outline of Holt's career that Frame was able to establish. Harold Holt has been the subject of only one biography and a significant amount of conjecture.
