A history of Group M photographers by Philip Bentley

Back in 1996, Philip Bentley, Melbourne historian, wrote a thesis on the history of the Melbourne photographers, Group M.

The thesis is titled: Deeper Feeling, Wider Vision.

This association of photographers grew out of a former group, the Moggs Creek Clickers.
