This photographic compilation casts a unique light upon much of life in Victoria in the decades between 1920 to 1960. Here, documented from private photographic archives and family albums, most never before published, we are given valuable insights into the life styles of many prominent families of the Melbourne scene and great farming families of the Western District and other country centres.
This volume cmplements Judy White's to previously published volumes Memories Sydney 1920 to 1960 and Memories Country NSW 1920 to 1960. Ultimately this trilogy will stand as a lasting tribute to Judy White's efforts to document these decades, affording the reader and the social historian the opportunity to broaden the historical perspectives that underpin research, and enliven and refresh the way we look to the past in order to understand better the present.
