Isaac and his twin brother Glynn were born in Cape Town, South Africa , to William Edwyn Isaac and Frances Margaret Leighton , both professional botanists.
Isaac earned his B.A. and M.A. degrees from the University of Cape Town . In 1959 he was the Cape Province Rhodes Scholar at Balliol College (Oxford), earning his Ph.D. in 1962.[2]
In 1963 Isaac emigrated to Australia , where he taught at the University of Melbourne , and later at La Trobe University (1971–91), where he was emeritus professor of American history. In 1975 he was a distinguished visiting professor of early American history at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia .
Isaac won the 1983 Pulitzer Prize for History for his book The Transformation of Virginia, 1740-1790 Pulitzer Prize .
In 2004 Isaac published Landon Carter's Uneasy Kingdom: Revolution and Rebellion on a Virginia Plantation , which made use of the exemplary diary of a Virginian landholder and member of the House of Burgesses .
Isaac died at his home in Blairgowrie, Victoria , Australia, on 6 October 2010, aged 72, from cancer.[3]
