This compelling historical account chronicles the settlement, growth, and cultural evolution of this distinctive Australian peninsula, drawing on meticulous research to present the stories of the pioneering families, townships, and landmarks that shaped the region from its earliest colonial days through to the modern era. Through detailed narratives and evocative illustrations, the authors paint an intimate portrait of a community forged by the land and sea that surrounds it.\n\nJoan Bognuda and Leslie M. Moorhead write with the authority of dedicated local historians, their prose both accessible and richly informative, grounding grand historical forces in the personal stories of the people who lived them. The work stands as an invaluable record of a region whose identity is inseparable from its unique geography — caught, as its title suggests, between two bays — and raises an irresistible question for any reader: how much of this singular place and its people has the tide of time truly preserved?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49336801231067,"sku":"2026200016421-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/09539bb6-56b8-4737-893f-4b87c8dbfd65.png?v=1789957918","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200016421-secondhand-between-the-bays-mornington-peninsula","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
