‘Rogerson’s new study is of great interest… It is a very human story with a serious academic purpose… The author can be congratulated on a work which is far more than a narrative of a city’s collective efforts at a dramatic revival.’
Margaret Rogerson is a senior lecturer in the Department of English at the University of Sydney.
