Sir Robert Menzies was arguably Australia's greatest political orator, but how did he develop his magnificent way with words?The language of the 'Forgotten People' has etched itself permanently in the Australian political lexicon, but few realise that Menzies learned to write speeches in part by writing verse. This new collection brings to light Menzies's hidden artistry, from childhood rhymes about football to witty parodies of his political rivals. In doing so, it offers a new window into the great man, and the early twentieth century Australia in which he thrived.'Fancies I Dare Not Speak: The Hidden Verse of R. G.

G. Menzies. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
