A Tribe of Angels
A new memoir has been added to the local history collection in Ivanhoe Library. A Tribe of Angles: coming of age in Melbourne by Russell Beedles is an "evocation of daily life in Melbourne during the 1940s and 1950s". Part one of this autobiographical memoir centres on his childhood in Ivanhoe.
Photos from the Beedles Family collection living in Ivanhoe are in the collection of Museum Victoria and can be accessed via their website
