Due to refurbishment work being done on our historic lift, the Melbourne Athenaeum Library will be closed on Saturday August 15.
The library will be open regular hours on Friday August 14 and Monday August 17.
From the horse-drawn carriages of the 1880s to the sleek modern trams of today, author Greg Gardiner takes us on a fascinating ride through the history and memory of a unique urban icon.
A rumbling journey through time, TRAM is a book of stories, a celebration of the city’s living veins. TRAM celebrates the world’s largest tram network, weaving together history, memory and imagination to tell the stories of a city in motion.
Greg Gardiner is a former tram driver and head of research in the Victorian Parliamentary Library.
