The Forgotten People Paul Ritchie

Robert Menzies' famous Forgotten People speeches captured the hopes of Australians as they looked forward to a better life after World War II. While times have changed, Menzies' themes of freedom, opportunity and responsibility remain.

In The Forgotten People: Updated, Menzies' political heirs revisit these themes against the contemporary backdrop of freedom of speech, urban life, fairness, education, political correctness, Trump, the rise of China and more.
