Tasmanian Built – The Places and Stories of the Tasmanian Heritage Register | King, Torossi, Evans & Plapp | 2022 [NEW – Large SC]

One hundred places on the Tasmanian Heritage Register — and the stories of why they were built, who built them, and why they matter. Tasmania has more heritage-listed buildings per capita than any other Australian state, and the stories behind them are often as significant as the buildings themselves. This book covers 100 of them across the island — from convict-built bridges and colonial homesteads to Georgian churches, industrial buildings and structures that don't fit the usual categories.

The approach is explicitly not just architectural description — it's the human story behind each place. Who commissioned it, who built it, what it was for, what happened there, why it was significant enough to protect.

At 214 indexed large-format pages with colour photographs throughout, this is both a browsable picture book and a serious reference work.

A gift for anyone who lives in, visits or is interested in Tasmania's built heritage — and a natural companion to the Robertson & Craig architecture series if you're building a serious Tasmanian heritage library.
