Craig McGregor, one of Australia's most incisive social commentators, presents a sweeping panorama of ordinary and extraordinary Australians alike — from politicians and pop stars to activists and everyday suburbanites — capturing the restless energy of a society grappling with modernity, youth culture, and shifting power structures. Illustrated with the sharp, satirical eye of Martin Sharp, the book brings an additional layer of visual wit and irreverence to McGregor's already dynamic prose.\n\nMcGregor's writing is both journalistic in its precision and literary in its ambition, drawing on interviews, observation, and cultural critique to construct a portrait of a country simultaneously clinging to its past and lurching toward an uncertain future. The result is a document of remarkable historical and sociological value, illuminating the fault lines of class, race, and generation that defined Australia in the 1960s. For anyone seeking to understand how a quietly conservative nation began to find its own radical voice, this is an essential and utterly compelling read.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49216211517659,"sku":"2026200013203-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1c7635d4-e19a-4399-9b78-3314b1f8e431.png?v=1788405431","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013203-secondhand-people-politics-and-pop-australians-in-the-sixties","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
