March's book: 'Newcastle' by Scott Bevan.

Newcastle finds itself on shifting ground. But it’s not an earthquake, or subsidence due to an old mine. It’s perception that’s shifting.

Not only is Newcastle dramatically changing, but so are people’s views of the city. People are ‘discovering’ Newcastle. Or, more pointedly, they are seeing Newcastle for what it is. And those from Newcastle are seeing their city in a different light.

In Newcastle Scott Bevan examines the character and the soul of the city he grew up in, its past and where it finds itself. He traverses between early contact with the Awabakal people and missionary Lancelot Threlkeld, Newcastle’s convict and industrial past, and its famous children (from Silverchair and the Knights to William Dobell), and explores how the city now juggles a range of roles, including as the world’s largest coal export port and a hub of creative talent.

On this journey, we hear the stories of dozens of locals, from community leaders to champion surfers, from rock and rollers to architects and environmentalists, all the while finding out how this place once renowned as ‘Steel City’ is revealing the ‘new’ in Newcastle.

Entry is free. Lucky door prizes with every meal purchase.
