Darebin Parklands - the book

HOME DELIVERY OPTION WITHIN AUSTRALIA ($12.95 DELIVERY AND HANDLING WILL BE ADDED)

By Dr Sarah Mirams

Foreword by former Australian of the Year, Professor Tim Flannery

ISBN: 9781877096464

Darebin Parklands: Escaping the Claws of the Machine is a beautifully illustrated coffee table book that tells the story of the land our park is created on – from the First Nation indigenous owners to the farmers and industrialists who later occupied the site. It tells of how concerted community action over a generation saw the land saved “from the claws of the machine”.

“I commend this story to anyone who has a vision for improving his or her community, who seeks inspiration to make it happen.”

From the foreword by former Australian of the Year, Professor Tim Flannery
