The encyclopedia of Melbourne

Work
"The encyclopedia of Melbourne reflects and encompasses the city's historical position as one of the pre-eminent nineteenth-century metropolises, and as one of the twenty-first century's most liveable cities. Alphabetical entries range from short factual summaries about places, institutions and events through to extended survey articles on key topics..." A major resource for information on all aspects of Melbourne's past and present. Of interest to Richmond researchers, for example, are the entry "Richmond - a brief history", by Janet McCalman; and entries such as those on Dimmey's, Pelaco, the Skipping Girl sign, Cremorne, and Burnley Gardens. There are many more.
