Authored by Geoffrey Hutton and Les Tanner, with an introduction by the distinguished historian Geoffrey Blainey, the book presents a richly illustrated journey through the milestones, personalities, and defining moments that shaped both the newspaper and the nation it documented. Through archival photographs, historic front pages, and incisive commentary, it captures the drama of wars, political upheavals, social transformations, and cultural shifts that *The Age* reported and, at times, helped to shape.\n\nHutton and Tanner bring a keen journalistic eye and genuine affection for their subject, weaving together institutional history with the broader tapestry of Australian society. The result is a work of enduring cultural significance — part commemorative volume, part social history — that illuminates how a single masthead can serve as both mirror and conscience of a nation. Whether you are a devoted reader of *The Age*, a student of Australian media history, or simply a lover of richly detailed historical narratives, this volume asks a quietly provocative question: what does it mean when a newspaper outlasts the very world it was born to report?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572268667099,"sku":"2026100011188-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3e286717-e0c2-456c-b445-cdeed3d5b0f7.png?v=1791166160","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100011188-secondhand-125-years-of-age","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
