Melbourne, the 2nd largest city in Australia, had a small population in the late 1880s, but reportedly managed to build the largest exhibition building on Earth, described as the most artistic and elaborate structure ever erected on the Australian continent. The extent of its beauty had no words; it was bigger than 4 of England's cathedrals. Yet something doesn't add up here. How did they build such an edifice while living in shacks and bungalows with no power tools? Why do photos show women at parties there with magnificent dresses when sewing machines weren't available? Why has the construction photo been doctored and the sky edited? To discover the right answers, we must learn to ask the right questions.
