xii, 109 p.; 24 cmnon-fictionEumemmerring covers a large area on the south-eastern (Dandenong) perimeter of Melbourne. Jean Uhl traces the development of this once peaceful district into a thriving, modern, industrial zone with its noise, its buildings and its land speculations. Through it we can follow the evolution of Australia from a primary producing company in the nineteenth century to a rapidly expanding industrial nation in the twentieth century. Personalities, buildings and landmarks are presented and discussed with loving care, thus making this book one of the most noteable local histories to be published in recent time in Victoria. eumemmerring (vic.), dandenong (vic.), dandenong (vic.) - history

Originally the home of Isaac Jeeves, brother of Ellis Jeeves, ‘Shiloah’ was enlarged to take guests in the early 1900s. It was situated close to a beautiful fern gully and Isaac and his family capitalised on this by setting out walking tracks through the ferns. They charged 1/- to walk through and this included afternoon tea in a garden setting. ‘Shiloah’ was a popular tourist attraction but the making of the Olinda Creek Road destroyed the fern gullies and, by the 1930s, it was all finished. This photograph shows the tea tables at 'Shiloah' where Selina Jeeves and her daughter Elsie served afternoon tea to visitors.Black and white photograph taken from a Rose Series postcard showing tables set up in an exterior courtyard with bench seating.On front - Rose Series P. 170 A SHADY BOWER "SHILOAH" MT DANDENONG.
