A description of our secondhand books is not always available. Please contact us if you have a question about this title. Author: Alasdair McGregor Format: Hardback Number of Pages: 224 The story of Australia in the middle decades of the 20th century - from 1930 to 1980 - is one of dramatic contrast; of dark days and light - of economic struggle, anxiety, war and sacrifice, giving way from the 1950s onwards to prosperity, plenty and confidence. Australian Geographic's In Living Memory surveys these decades with a collection of fascinating, surprising and entertaining photographs of everyday Australian life. Author Alasdair McGregor places the images in their historical context with a thoughtful essay to introduce each of the four chapters - the way we lived, the way we moved, the way we worked and the way we played. This warmly nostalgic collection will appeal to all ages - those who remember the milkman, the dunny man and the ice chest, and those who cheered on Dennis Lillee's moustache or took part in the 'bikini wars' on Bondi Beach.

From the dust jacket: "The Kimberley is one of the most remarkable yet least known parts of Australia. Occupying an immense area of the continent's north-west, it is remote, sparsely populated, and a marvel of natural diversity. As a region it stands apart. The great arc of ranges to the south and east effectively isolates the region from the rest of the mainland. The deeply indented coastline to the north, fortified by rugged cliffs and washed by monstrous tides, completes the Kimberley's natural borders Home to an extraordinary array of wildlife and vegetation, the Kimberley stands as one of the world's last great natural refuges. From its scorched desert fringes and vast eucalypt woodlands, to pockets of remnant rainforest and coastal mangrove communities patrolled by saltwater crocodiles, there is a variety of habitats with few equals."

Dust jacket has light creasing to edges and fading to spine. Dust jacket is now enclosed in protective covering. Body text and binding are still very good. In this definitive new biography of Griffin - husband and wife - Alasdair McGregor delineates the role each played in the production of their greatest works - Canberra, Castlecrag, Newman College and the rest - and charts their lives, from their childhoods and meeting in Chicago in the employ of the larger-than-life Frank Lloyd Wright, to their battles in Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney, and their swansong in India. This is a tale of many parts. It traces the lives of two individuals of great talent and vision and their fight against mediocrity. It is the story of the birth of Canberra, telling us as much about the Griffins as it does about ourselves and the troubled birth of the Australian national identity. It is a portrait of a pioneering woman who achieved extraordinary things but was rarely credited for them. And it is an examination of the nature of fame in a young country uncertain of its position in the world.…
