Australia’s Historic Pubs showcases with vibrant photography 52 of the most cherished heritage pubs in Australia. The book reveals their varied histories and also uncovers many of the colourful characters that brought these Australian pubs to life, from the chaotic allure of the gold rush to the whispers of ghosts haunting ancient halls. Readers discover how immigrants carved out their destinies amidst the greed and ambition of the gold rushes, while convicts carved the very building blocks. Hidden dramas of duels, hangings and the fines levied upon unruly licensees are explored alongside the innovation of Cobb & Co, which revolutionised travel in the 19th century. From the bustling streets of Hobart to the serene banks of the Swan and Brisbane Rivers, this book takes you on a journey to visit some of the most venerable watering holes in Australia.
