In this fascinating book we meet time and again the doers of the past, the buildings and other structures they built, why they built them, and how their activities still have a much greater influence in our use of today's Hobart than is generally realised.

In his daily work, Frank Bolt was very much involved with the conservation of Tasmania's historic past (he was the townplanner by profession).

This fine publication will help us to understand and appreciate the early past of Hobart much better.

All in all, an absorbing, informative, and highly readable book.

Frank Bolt was born in the Netherlands in 1928 and was a renown local photographer and publisher. He died in 2009.
