The History of Prahran Volume II: 1925-1990 by Sally Wilde

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still excellent.

Prahran has a lively and bustling history, from its origins as a small settlement in the bushlands of the 1850s to its present status as an inner-city municipality. It has been one of Melbourne's most socially and economically diverse areas.

In this book, residents of Prahran share their own stories. These are as diverse as Prehran itself. There are tales of wine and roses at balls in Toorak, of playing cricket in the streets of Windsor and of campaigning against high-rise flats. (back cover)
