Maree Coote takes you through a potted history of Melbourne via the city’s best stories: from William Buckley to Dan Sultan; David Collins to Dame Edna; from Ellis Rowan to Mirka Mora; from Vegemite to Germaine Greer. Coote tells the story of a city and its style, its people and its vivid past. Over 60 stories covered in the book under four chapter headings: Opportunity, Sanctuary, Passion and Beauty. Crammed with anecdotes and detail, and accompanied by hundreds of wonderful photographs and illustrations.
