Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are also very good.
In 1919, Sydney was about to be transformed by a great building boom, which destroyed the old walking-distance city forever. Six decades later, Sydney is a sprawling metropolis.
Sydney Since the Twenties tells the story of Australia's most populous city through land booms and busts, the Harbour Bridge, the Great Depression, the Second World War, and the expansionist 50s and 60s, fuelled by post-war immigration.
Throughout the book, over 250 illustrations provide a visual record of how three generations of Sydneysiders have watched their city change. Includes an appendix of population and dwellings.
