Description:
This is the second talk that Graham is giving about his new book; the first was at the launch in November last year.The history of hotel keeping in Fremantle began when the first British colonists arrived to establish a settlement at the Swan River in 1829.
Within six months of arrival they had established four hotels with many more to follow, and Allen’s recently published book traces the history of those early hotels and how they shaped the culture and appearance of Fremantle today.
