Letters to Australia is a collection of Julius Stone's radio talks, originally broadcast by the ABC between 1942 and 1972.

Recently discovered in the nation's archives, they take the reader back to the mid-20th century, bringing to life the people, events, and the sweep of affairs during World War II and its turbulent aftermath, capturing the hopes and fears of individuals and nations.

These talks reveal much about Australia's role in that world and that era. More than anyone else at that time, Julius Stone gave Australians a sense that they were part of the world and could, and should, seek to influence these events.
