A City Lost & Found: Whelan The Wrecker's Melbourne by Robyn Annear offers a vivid, non‑fiction look at Melbourne’s architectural evolution, tracing the city’s hidden histories through the lens of demolition and redevelopment.

The book blends elements of history, urban studies and cultural commentary, making it a compelling read for fans of Australian history, architecture and true‑story narratives. Its accessible style appeals to a broad audience, from young adults to seasoned readers interested in the forces that reshape our cities.
