Australiana Architecture & Interior Design Local & Regional History
Getting The Details Right: Restoring Australian Houses 1890s‑1920s by Ian Evans is a practical non‑fiction guide for anyone interested in historic Australian architecture and heritage building. The 1989 hardcover offers solid, tight binding and a dust‑jacket that, while showing some scuffing, wear and small tears, still protects the book well.
The first four pages bear a stamp in the top corner, indicating a personalized copy, and the interior shows minor foxing on the page edges. The book has been kept in a smoke‑free home, helping preserve its overall condition.
This title sits at the intersection of history, construction, and personal development, making it useful for both adult hobbyists and young adults studying Australian heritage. It is a valuable addition for collectors of antiquarian, art and culture, or building‑trade literature.
