RICKARDS, Scott
A stunning collection of maps and rare photographs of Adelaide CBD between WWI and WWII. Between 1924 and 1926 the Fire Underwriters’ Association of South Australia produced a series of detailed maps of the main business district of Adelaide.
NEED, Allan
South Australians are lucky. They have not only a temperate climate but a government, developed from the principles of the Enlightenment, which encourages innovation and social progress. The lead South Australians have given the world in agriculture, science and social advancement can, in part, be attributed to the women and men described in this volume.
COSTER, DJ
D.J. Coster describes his life journey against the background of profound socioeconomic change in Australia in the 80 years since the end of WWII. It is not a story of personal achievement against the odds, but a description of factors that made the baby boomer generation more privileged than any other generation before or since, and the way national and global events, chance encounters, and luck, shape lives.
EDWARDS, Cliff
William Edward Daw worked to capture the scenic coastline of West Norfolk, particularly the areas around Hunstanton, with its sandy beaches, cliffs, and charming villages.

CARROLL, Ivor John
Ivor John Carroll—a self-confessed ratbag—takes us on a sometimes comical and at times emotional journey through what it was to be a ‘copper’ during the 1940-50s. The array of fascinating characters with whom he worked—some loved, some hated—the continually changing states of ‘the job’, and the many and varied ‘cases’ on which he worked, are related in a frank, politically incorrect and unfiltered manner—he pulls no punches.
RIGBY, Ken

TROPIANO, Giuliano
The people of Calabria are considered one of the friendliest people of any region of Italy, and always welcome you with open arms. In 2021, I thought it would be a good idea to publish a book that people and our younger generation can have in their homes, and keep this lovely cuisine alive for many more years and centuries to follow, and make our Nonna’s proud.
