Callan Park: Compassion and Conflict in The Asylum by Roslyn Burge

Callan Park: Compassion and Conflict in The Asylum by Roslyn Burge

Using images – some never seen publicly before – and oral history interviews (including the Rozelle Hospital Oral History Collection) historian Roslyn Burge has created a fascinating insight into the former mental asylum, capturing the stories of patients, residents, staff , the community, the landscape and Callan Park’s importance as a place of refuge and conflict.

The book is available for $15 = $10 book plus $5 for postage and handling.
