About This Item
Melbourne, Richmond: Greenhouse Publications, 1988. 1st ed.. Paperback small quarto, very good condition, black & white & colour text-photos, light foxing edges, spine & corner front cover little creased, covers little toned in places, minor edgewear. 106 pp. A charming and very funny look at Australia and Australians. In the years leading up to Federation a desire for a material identity began to emerge. Vane Lindesay looks at the tangible expressions of this patriotic urge as it was manifested in our buildings, homes, hobbies and applied art.
