Description:
A curator's journey to uncover the stories behind everyday objects and preserve history for the common good




After thirty years confined within museum walls, a restless history curator steps out for air. In this book of essays, Anne-Marie Conde grants herself freedom to ask fresh questions about the significance of objects and places within the lives of ordinary people. Cemeteries, junk shops, war memorials. Stones and scraps and scrawls. These are where this author goes for inspiration.




Whether it's a wet greasy pavement in Hobart or a message in chalk in Sydney- Conde can coax a historical narrative out of the most meagre sources. Along the way she asks why anyone would offer a potato as a gift to a prime minister? How could this humble vegetable help us think about Australia's past?




Throughout, Conde casts a patient and gently curious gaze over her subjects. Many writers are fascinated by unrecorded lives, but where there are records, Conde is sure to find them.

Perfect size and amount for family travel
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 6), Style: SPF 50
My usual brand raised its prices, leaving me in a bind to find a cheaper alternative that works well and is suitable for our family trips. I stumbled upon this brand and decided to give it a try. The travel-sized multi-pack is priced reasonably, and I received it promptly. I’ve decided to make this brand my go-to for travel products.

Recommend
Size: 2.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I'm super picky with face lotions and I really like it. Great size for travel, purse or glove box. Very pleasant smell. Feels great, not oily. Didn't take my makeup off.

Great for acne prone skin!
Size: 5.2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Has a very nice light scent. Non greasy. Worked well on my acne prone skin. It didn’t feel like it was heavy on my face. No white cast. This is a great all over sunscreen.

Love this sunscreen
Size: 2.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I really love this sunscreen for my face and décolleté because it give the protection I want without the heavy greasy feel of sunscreen. Plus, it's perfect size to drop in my bag and no weigh me down. The bottle has never leaked. I really really like the non aerosol spray-even if it means that I have to spread it around a little, it's worth it for environmental reasons and honestly, it really didn't mess up my makeup at all when I patted it in gently. I didn't get blemishes from it at all. It doesn't have the full Hawaiian Tropic scent that we all know and love but it is very lightly scented and it is pleasant, still very tropical but more light and airy scented-not quite the same as the main line.
