Balmain, Glebe & Annandale Walks Tapa blanda - 1997

Hale & Iremonger, Australia, 1992. Softcover. Very Good Condition. The whole of Balmain, near Sydney, Australia, was once sold for five shillings; in the early days kangaroo hunts ended at Long Nose Point at Birchgrove; in the middle of modern Glebe is a Chinese joss house; and Annandale was the estate of First Fleet Mariner George Johnston, who lived at Annandale House with his mistress Esther Abrahams. These suburbs are fascinating areas to explore. Discover their history in a series of leisurely walks that reveal points of interest, the architecture of public buildings, and the history of churches and houses. Each walk has an easy-to-follow map. A series of profiles outlines the achievements and life stories of notable residents, and a time line allows you to place each suburb's history in the context of national and international events. 120 pages.
