- W10159416 abstract "If so much of Sydney’s physical space was saved in the 1970s by Jack Mundey and the NSW BLF, then much of its historical record has been preserved in this fine book by Terry Irving and Rowan Cahill. It’s an ambitious but successful attempt to trace our radical roots from the arrival of the first Europeans through to the present day. This journal article is available in Illawarra Unity Journal of the Illawarra Branch of the Australian Society for the Study of Labour History: http://ro.uow.edu.au/unity/vol10/iss1/8 66 Terry Irving and Rowan Cahill, Radical Sydney: Places, Portraits and Unruly Episodes (UNSW Press 2010) Reviewed by Maurie Mulheron If so much of Sydney’s physical space was saved in the 1970s by Jack Mundey and the NSW BLF, then much of its historical record has been preserved in this fine book by Terry Irving and Rowan Cahill. It’s an ambitious but successful attempt to trace our radical roots from the arrival of the first Europeans through to the present day. The book is divided into almost 50 chapters, each relating to a significant political struggle, or ‘unruly episode’, that took place in a suburb of Sydney, or more often, the inner city. This approach proves to be the book’s great strength, providing as it does an episodic history while preserving a chronology and historical narrative. The reader can either follow the subtle narrative as a whole, from start to finish, or delve into a particular area of interest. (A map of historical sites encourages the reader to blend the geography with the history). This structure should prove popular with students and teachers of history. But it is the authors’ attention to detail, their ability to unearth obscure yet fascinating anecdotes, which will keep bringing readers back to the book. Who could resist the story of Lucien Henry, a leader of the Paris Commune who having survived the guillotine, was transported to New Caledonia, then eventually pardoned, before finding his way with his wife Juliette, to Victoria Street, Kings Cross. An artist, ardent republican and agitator, the only physical signs of Henry’s presence in Sydney are the two beautiful stain glass windows he designed that now dominate the stairwells flanking the Main Hall of the Sydney Town Hall. How many of us knew at the time of the Patrick’s war" @default.
