1971 The Glorious Years of Australia Fair by R. Ward Australian History Book

The Glorious Years of Australia Fair from the Birth of the Bulletin to Versailles
By Graeme Inson and Russell Ward
Published by Jacaranda Press: Milton Qld 1971

" The Glorious Years of Australia Fair presents a vivid and richly illustrated narrative of Australia's cultural, political, and literary life from the founding of The Bulletin in the 1880s through to the aftermath of World War I and the Treaty of Versailles. Graeme Inson and Russell Ward trace the rise of a distinctly Australian identity, shaped by the magazine's nationalism, its celebration of the bush ethos, and its influence on writers, artists, and the nation's social direction. Through carefully selected reproductions, commentary, and archival imagery, the volume documents the formative decades in which Australia defined itself both at home and abroad.

The book continues this trajectory into the wartime years and the shaping of Australia's international voice at Versailles, examining how politics, public sentiment, and creative expression evolved alongside the nation's growing confidence. It serves both as an illustrated chronicle and a thoughtful historical analysis, positioning The Bulletin as a cultural force that helped give rise to modern Australian consciousness. This volume will appeal to collectors of Australian history, Bulletin enthusiasts, and admirers of early national cultural development."
