I found this is some dodgy swap shop on Smith St, cost me $15 (well, cost my boyfriend $15, but he's forgotten) and its really fascinating. Its basically a really old fashioned travel guide, covering restaurants, community, public transport, entertainment, and local characters. I have always loved Cecil Beatons sketches and photography, and now I love this book. I'm about half way through so in a week or so I am happy to lend it out!
I'm also reading this:
Its sort of the modern Melbourne/Australia version of Portrait of New York. Also totally amazing.
