Robert Menzies was arguably the most successful and influential politician Australia has ever known. For decades, he represented the culture and attitudes of the population. The man has never been well explained, the historical events of his life commandeering the limelight. Through a description of those events and an examination of those times, this biography has teased out much of the enigma that was Robert Menzies. This is the first part of the mammoth task and covers the years from Menzies' birth in 1894 to possibly the most tumultuous year of his life, 1943.
