Copping It Sweet: Shared memories of Richmond (Second Hand Book)

SECOND HAND BOOK – EX-LIBRARY

From the Introduction:

Richmond’s brief reign in the 1830s and 40s as a country retreat for Melburnian gentlemen soon ended as men returned disappointed from the goldfields, and new arrivals disembarked ship in Marvellous Melbourne, hungry for work.

The memories shared in Copping It Sweet are a gift to the outsider and an historical reconciling at the end of an era marked by Richmond’s return to fashion as a place to live.

The name Richmond will always remain but for the community and the values it represents there is no such certainty. The hope of the people who worked on Copping It Sweet is that old and new residents alike will recognize those values here and that the trust shown by the people represented has been well-placed.
