In this groundbreaking work, social historian Andrew Brown-May invites readers to walk the bluestone paths and imagine the everyday past, seeing the urban landscape with new eyes.Melbourne Street Life is a rich and vital commentary on the city's transformation, tracing the throng of its historical inhabitants: the wealthy, the idlers, the hawkers, the cabbies, the protesters, and the prostitutes. Brown-May explores the tension between the need for public order and the democratic chaos that defines public space, detailing everything from the political battles over street names to the hidden lives unfolding in the notorious 'little' lanes.An instant classic of urban history, this book reveals the drama and humanity written into every brick and corner of the world's most liveable city.

In the true spirit of Federation, the square integrates a broad range of civic, cultural and commercial activities. This commemorative edition documents the site of Federation Square - what was on the site originally and how it has been used over time. It looks at the planning of the CBD and its relation to the site and then goes into detail about each of the components of Federation Square, the design, the materials used and the constraints of building.The book will also include lots of fascinating factual information about the construction of Federation Square and its controversies.

Hardback. Andrew Brown-May (University of Melbourne), Cambridge University Press. Great cities deserve great encyclopedias. A city is known by its past, its characteristic virtues and troubles, and its ways of life. 'Marvellous Melbourne' symbolises the achievements of Australian urbanisation and suburbanisation. The Encyclopedia of Melbourne reflects and encompasses the city's historical position as one of the world's pre-eminent nineteenth century metropolises, and as one of the twenty-first century's most liveable cities. Alphabetical entries range from short factual summaries about places, institutions and events, through to extended survey articles on key topics such as Architecture, Aboriginal Melbourne, Economy, Foundation and Early Settlement, Law and Order, Literature, Science, Sport, Suburbia, Theatre and Transport. Although Australia has long ranked amongst the world's most urbanised countries, no comparable reference work exists on any Australian metropolis. Hardback.
