Description: ‘27 Stories’ marks a section of the ‘Gecko Natural History’ trail described in Meyer Eidelson’s Walks in Port Phillip.

This collection of stories documents attitudes and experiences of life in Elwood. The work also deals with contrasts between the natural environment and the built environment, indigenous and European settlement & the good days old days and the bad old days.
