Adelaide Remember When started on Facebook in March 2013, and within 12 months had 17 000 followers and spawned a regular weekly newspaper column in The Adelaide Advertiser. This book brings together the best photographs and commentary from a time we love to remember.

Bob Byrne had a long career in commercial radio, particularly 5DN Adelaide, before becoming a columnist and blogger at the Adelaide Advertiser, writing about Adelaide of the recent past. He started the "Adelaide Remember When" Facebook page.
