LINKS LINK LINKS - HELPFUL AND INSIGHTFUL LINKS FOR PEOPLE WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT SYDNEY & AUSTRALIAN HISTORY





LINKS LINK LINKS - HELPFUL AND INSIGHTFUL LINKS FOR PEOPLE WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT SYDNEY & AUSTRALIAN HISTORY



Mirror Sydney - An album of Sydney encounters by Vanessa Berry. The psychogeography of the city. Places unusual, overlooked, hidden and secret. Minor landmarks and suburban oddities. Time and memory. Paying attention to the under-appreciated parts of the urban environment since 2012. Plenty Of Links To Other Sydney Sites And Resources, 





Past Lives Of The Near Future - Revealing Traces Of A Former Sydney.  Sydney’s past is still visible beneath the facade of today if you look close enough. Past/Lives seeks to uncover the secrets, reveal the hidden sides and tell the forgotten stories of Sydney using the clues that have been left behind through the years. Past/Lives chronicles those instances of poorly reconstituted Pizza Huts, lazily retooled milk bars and forgotten former points of significance we pass by or even notice every day, but never really stop to look at.





TROVE - Digital Print










Project Gutenberg Australia -  A Truly Amazing Site with all e books and other material thats out of its copyright and is free to download. There is something there for everyone once you start looking.
Everything from The Journals From Captain Cook, Sir Joseph Banks, La Perouse, Arthur Phillip & the Firs t Fleet, to The Explorers, To The Indigenous, to Famous Australian Authors, From "The Magic Pudding", to the "Harp In The South", to "Storm Boy" To "The Wild Men of Sydney" 
I have personally downloaded so many titles from Project Gutenberg and its really helped me understand some of the stories from an earlier time in Sydney Town
