Overview
A compelling, accessible introduction to Melbourne and its people that explores the ups and downs of an eventful history, with lavish color illustrations throughout.
Melbourne is one of the world’s most admired and vibrant modern cities. A lively multicultural population relishes its attractive waterfront, tree-lined streets and relaxed spaces for eating and socialising. Yet the city has also seen hardship and industrial decline, Gold Rush boom and architectural splendour, poverty and dispossession, all reflected in its remarkable cultural and economic legacy.
Melbourne: City Histories offers an engaging, lavishly illustrated introduction to this dynamic city. It explores the long occupation of the land around present-day Melbourne/Naarm by the people of the Kulin Nation, revealing the devastating impact of their dispossession by European arrivals. Later chapters trace the extraordinarily rapid growth of Melbourne through the 1840s, the Gold Rush decades and the 1880s, when the city became known as ‘Marvellous Melbourne’. It then considers the volatile 20th century, from two world wars and global depression to the ‘long boom’ that attracted migrants from around the world.
Published in partnership with the Old Treasury Building Museum.
City Histories profiles a city based on the collections held at an institution within it – the guardians of a city’s story, telling its origins, history, lives of its people through the unique lens of its collections.
