This book celebrates some of the little-told and unusual stories in Melbourne's evolution from a few houses on the banks of the Yarra river to today's bustling metropolis.
Unsolved heists, a disappearing hill, a hidden creek, the big 'bad beer' panic, a killer elephant, a runaway lion, and trees with their own email address - Melbourne Moments bursts with these and many more tales from the city's extraordinary history.
Deeply researched and packed with dozens of contemporary illustrations and photographs, this book will keep readers flipping and dipping for hours and learning something new and surprising about Melbourne on nearly every page.
An ideal gift for anyone interested in the history and evolution of this dynamic city.
