The volume presents Brisbane's defining landmarks, streetscapes, and hidden corners with an artist's eye and a historian's sensibility, chronicling the city's unique character at a pivotal moment in its growth and development. Each page pairs illustration with narrative to conjure a Brisbane that is both intimately familiar to its residents and revelatory to the uninitiated.\n\nPart of the celebrated Rigby Sketchbook series, this edition stands as a significant document of Australian urban heritage, illustrating the textures of colonial architecture, riverside precincts, and the everyday life that animated them. Newell's writing is warm and observational, grounding White's precise, atmospheric line work in a rich cultural and historical context. For collectors of Australiana, urban historians, and admirers of fine illustration, this volume poses a quietly compelling question: how much of the Brisbane it so tenderly preserves still endures today?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49309682237659,"sku":"2026200016768-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/808cb3c9-3e80-43ab-b004-80965001f114.png?v=1789455308","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200016768-secondhand-brisbane-sketchbook","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
