Book Overview

Discover the soul of Australia's remotest capital city. David Whish-Wilson's Perth delves into the deeper historical currents beneath the city's surface. Like the Swan River that flows in two directions, this book harmonizes Perth's contradictions and eccentricities.

With personal reminiscences and eye-opening facts, this updated edition explores the city's cultural landscape and emotional depths.
