Abstract

The Department of Maritime Archaeology at the Western Australian Maritime Museum has been involved in the management of maritime industrial heritage for almost a quarter of a century. Reasons why such a phenomena has occurred are lightheartedly examined. It is argued here that the scene for such work was set many years before, with one example being children's literature of the immediate post war period. What has been learned from it all, what has resulted and what hope is held for the future, are also examined.
