Hotham History Project

We are a group of North and West Melbourne residents and friends who have decided to write, illustrate and publish a people's history of North and West Melbourne. We want to involve as many people as possible in the doing of the history, so we are looking for people who can write, research, interview, transcribe, illustrate, edit, type, desktop publish, organise, publicise and raise money. There will be plenty for many people to do and our aim is to make the compiling of this history a pleasure for all involved.
