Plot

"St Mary's Cathedral is one of Tasmania's architectural gems... 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."--Back cover.
