What a Capital Idea is a refreshing and exciting new perspective on Australia that emerges from insightful and dedicated research. At every turn, the research presents a fascinating story of Australia's history like never before. Yet, the scholarship is tempered with wonderful and sometimes funny stories about people and their adventures. The easy-to-read style draws the reader on like a novel. By 1900, Australia returned more wealth to Britain than anywhere else in the world and had become Britain's greatest commercial accident. Australia was truly a Capital Idea.Nigel Farage -"Chris, you have clearly succeeded in an absolutely herculean task"Eric Abetz - "Dr. Christopher Reynolds is to be celebrated and honoured for his tireless efforts and diligence in bringing to the public this seminal work providing Australians with a balanced presentation of their enviable historic record."Peter Dutton to launch the book in Brisbane and Tony Abbott in Sydney during 2024
