Book Synopsis Brisbane Burns by : Sharyn Merkley
Book excerpt: 1864 was a tough year for the fledgling town of Brisbane as two devastating fires swept through its commercial hub. This book is the first comprehensive historical record of both the ordinary and well-known citizens of the early settlement city who survived the fire’s ravages to lay the foundations of Australia’s third biggest city.
