About This Item
Sydney: HarperCollins, 1997. Paperback octavo, very good condition, black & white drawing, pages lightly toned, spine little creased (binding error), some edgewear. 278 pp. Donald Horne, the noted historian and intellectual, has produced the widest, most irreverent, and most accessible range of Australian political ideas - set in their worldwide context, ever brought together in an Australian book. This humorous book is both a comedy of ideas and a comedy of manners. Australian political thought as a theme park - the chamber of racist horrors, garden of mateship, memorial for lost optimism, etc.
