Building Stories Tasmania is an illustrated tour of Tasmania's most distinctive buildings - working waterfronts, former hydro sites, pubs, bookshops, hotels, theatres and small-town main streets - told through the people who built, worked and lived in them: convicts, clergy, brewers, booksellers and activists.
Rees Campbell, author of the bestselling Eat MORE Wild Tasmanian, turns her attention to Tasmania's off-shore islands. There are some 6,500 islands, islets, rocks and reefs around the state, and this book visits 40 of them — from the largest, Flinders Island, to the remote and uninhabited Pedra Branca and Mewstone in the Southern Ocean, to some of the smallest and closest, like the Harbour Islets in the state's far North West.
A close study of the 186 carved decorations on the Ross Bridge — the convict-built sandstone bridge that has spanned the Macquarie River at Ross since 1836, and one of the most visited historic sites in Tasmania. The carvings were the work of Daniel Herbert, a transported convict who was a stonemason by trade.
