+We have a lively speaker who will present (with projected images) some of the sparkling gems she has
+uncovered in her historical work and play with Adelaide’s heritage . She will focus particularly on
+episodes from the fascinating life of Bert Edwards whose life spanned the 19th and 20th century
+Adelaide, the city of churches . Bert was dubbed ‘King of the Westend’, clearly a bigger than life
+character who could be jailed for sodomy, be very familiar with the seedy side of pubs, yet rise
+socially to become member of parliament.
+Our guest speaker has been a professional historian for some 25 years and as such has delved deeply into the
+colourful personalities, institutions, and events associated with the emergence of the City of Adelaide.
+The results of her wide-ranging explorations can be readily gleaned by sampling her engaging
+publications. Invariably, they are readable and well-illustrated, while remaining testaments to the
+value of historical truth-telling. As she often insists, what in fact happened in history is often more
+interesting and stranger than many fictitious versions in circulation.
+ Some of the speakers published books may be available to purchase.
