In Shutter City, historian Robyn Annear peers into every shadowy corner to reveal postcard streetscapes as miraculous time-capsules, packed with hidden-in-plain-sight historical detail.
Presenting city street views that span the hurly-burly decades between the gold rushes and Marvellous Melbourne, Shutter City is a time-machine, and Robyn Annear is your lively and insightful guide.
While stock lasts we are delighted to have signed copies of Shutter City available to buy online, and in our shops.
