In Living Memory

Alasdair Mcgregor (Australian Geographic, $59.99) In Living Memory takes the reader on a trip down memory lane, from 1930 to 1980, surveying the decades with a collection of fascinating, surprising and entertaining photographs of everyday Australian life. Author Alasdair Mcgregor places the images in their historical context with insightful commentary to introduce each of the four chapters – the way we lived, the way we moved, the way we worked and the way we played. This warmly nostalgic collection will appeal to all ages, from those who remember the milkman, dunny man and ice chest to the bikini wars at Bondi beach.
