Joyful and Glorious: Building St Mary's Cathedral, Hobart by Nicholas Brodie | PB

  • $3000


St Mary's Cathedral is one of Tasmania's architectural gems, yet it was marred with a difficult birth. This is the story of how it was built, paid for, used, taken down and then rebuilt. This history reveals something of Tasmania's Catholic community, and gives a sense of the social and cultural milieu of nineteenth-century Hobart and beyond. Clergy, laity, architects, labourers, benefactors, men, women and children all had their parts to play in building St Mary's Cathedral. 

Some of the proceeds from the sale of this book will be used to assist in the restoration and continued rebuilding of this remarkable spiritual edifice.
