The book explores Australia's transformation after World War I, highlighting a cultural shift among youth, the rise of consumerism, and the influence of cinema. It examines the political landscape with the contrasting leadership of PMs Stanley Melbourne Bruce and Jim Scullin, while detailing the societal tensions from the emergence of right-wing groups and the Communist Party. As the threat of another war loomed, it chronicles the Great Depression's impact, including widespread unemployment and the nation's involvement in global conflicts across various theaters.
