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.

Lovingly compiled and annotated by George's daughter, Erina Hutton, this is an original and absorbing book.
