'Perth Modern School: the history and the heritage'
A comprehensive history of the school from its foundation to 2004. Produced by the Sphinx Foundation. 583 pp (soft cover) with companion CD.
Dr Ken Michael AM, student 1954-55, in launching the book in 2005 had
this to say:
This is an extensive history, beautifully compiled and well thought out in
respect of providing a variety of presentations, such that you can journey from
beginning to end or you can almost open any page and read a relevant story about
an event, a person, a function (art, drama, sport) by way of example. You can
spend hours reading and enjoying it or you can simple pick it up for a quick
read of someone or something. It is quite fascinating and you will find
yourself reading or perusing this wealth of knowledge for quite some
time.
This pleasure is enhanced by the companion CD supplied with each book.
When you open the CD, I am sure you will be enriched by transcripts of
interviews with past students. My previous university supervisor was amongst
them, so I studied this with much interest.
