George S. Hutton's Port Adelaide and surrounds, 1924 to 1984
Erina
Hutton
This beautiful book brings together six decades of photographs of Port Adelaide, Semaphore and surrounds, as captured by professional photographer George Hutton (whose business was based in Exeter and then Largs Bay). These images chart the changing streetscapes, industry, fashion and way of life in these historic beachside suburbs from the 1920s to the 1980s. They also chronicle the long career of this much-loved neighbourhood photographer.

Haunted by memories of fear and violence, Ursus has never known kindness.
An accident sends Jake to an afterlife where pets go to await their human companions. ...
