- Book Synopsis
- Melbourne is a city of proud locals, and visitors who wish they lived here; Melbourne has long been considered one of the most liveable cities in the world. Culture reigns supreme, with world-class museums, galleries, street art and a topnotch food and coffee scene. In a compact, light paperback format perfect for slipping into your back pocket, Melbourne Pocket Precincts is your curated guide to the city's most interesting cultural, shopping, eating and drinking experiences, from the grunge of Fitzroy to the seaside vibes of St Kilda. Divided into separate precincts, each section lists the best shops, restaurants, bars and sights to see in the area. The precincts covered are: City East, City West, Southbank & South Melbourne, Fitzroy & Collingwood, Carlton & Brunswick, Northcote, Thornbury & Preston, St Kilda & Bayside, South Yarra, Prahran & Windsor, Footscray & Yarraville, Richmond & Abbotsford. As well as detailed reviews and maps for major attractions through to hidden gems, this guide includes a selection of 'field trips' encouraging you to venture outside the city to the iconic Great Ocean Road, picturesque Yarra Valley and the historic Goldfields region.
- About The Author
- For the last 15 years or so Dale Campisi has made it his business to get to know Melbourne. At first it was just to find the right bar, cafe or restaurant for this or that occasion, but the city got under his skin. Dale got his first look into the city's past during his Australian history studies at university, and went on to uncover some its lesser-known stories as publisher of Arcade Publications' little books about the city's colourful past. For a time Dale worked at the Public Record Office, and now he blogs about the city and leads regular tours for Melbourne Central and Hidden Secrets Tours. He also produces the annual architecture event Open House Hobart. Over the years, he's written a number of travel guides to Victoria and Tasmania, most recently Melbourne Pocket Precincts and Hide & Seek Hobart.
