Heritage of the City of Adelaide. An Illustrated Guide
Adelaide, Corporation of the City of Adelaide, 1996/ 1990.
Folio, 407 pages with hundreds of illustrations, maps and plates (some in colour) plus endpaper maps.
Gilt-decorated papered boards; a very small patch of adhesion damage to one opening (pages 150-151); an excellent copy with the dustwrapper lightly scuffed, with a couple of tiny surface abrasions.
'This book concerns the built heritage which is the essence of this special city. There are more than 400 buildings beginning with those constructed before the 1840s to a few exceptional recent buildings' (foreword). This is not only an invaluable architectural history reference work, it is also an important record of colonial South Australian photography.
