First published in 1964, the book was a wake-up call to an unimaginative nation, an indictment of a country mired in mediocrity and manacled to its past.

The publication in 1964 of "The Lucky Country" changed the way that Australians thought about themselves. This work is an extract from Horne's memoirs that recalls the personal and public circumstances, which led him to write "The Lucky Country".
