The Story

NB: This is a secondhand book in very good condition. See our FAQs for more information. Please note that the jacket image is indicative only. A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title.

Author: Fullilove Michael

Format: Paperback

Number of Pages: 300


There is no better way to deploy your arguments and tell your story - no better way to convict a criminal or defend an innocent or prosecute a cause or toast your gran's birthday - than with a speech. Speechmaker and speechwriter Michael Fullilove has gathered the finest Australian speeches delivered since Federation. Each one is a time capsule, a window onto a debate or controversy from our history. 'MEN AND WOMEN OF AUSTRALIA!' contains speeches that sing, speeches that engage your heart and your head: speeches you will want to read aloud to your children, your parents or your class. The speeches are skilfully introduced and arranged by theme: Australian history and culture, politics, causes worth fighting for, human rights, Australians at war, monarchy and republic, and remembrance. The dean of Australia's speechwriters, Graham Freudenberg, has written the Foreword. This definitive collection proves that great speeches are not only delivered in a Churchillian growl or a Kennedyesque brogue, but in an Australian drawl as well.
