Urban Nation by Robert Freestone

Urban Nation: Australia's Planning Heritage provides the first national survey of the historical impact of urban planning and design on the Australian landscape. This ambitious account looks at every state and territory from the earliest days of European settlement to the present day, identifying hundreds of places--parks, public spaces, redeveloped precincts, neighborhoods, and suburbs up to whole towns--that contribute to the distinctive character of urban and suburban Australia. It sets these significant planned landscapes within the broader context of both international design trends and Australian efforts at nation and city building.
