Summary Note |
In 1925 DH Lawrence described a huge, restless, modern Sydney, whose million inhabitants seem to slip like fishes from one side of the harbour to the other. What was true then had been the case for centuries before, and decades since. Sydney Harbour: A History explores the story of this great waterway. |
