| Title: Backtrack |
| By (author): BN Oakman |
| ISBN10-13: 1922830437 : 9781922830432 |
| Backtrack, BN Oakmanâ s third full-length collection, is a suite of poems created in response to an observed, often baffling, world. Oakman writes with conviction in a direct and lively style, while employing various poetic forms to explore a wide range of emotions and experiences. He gives us poems crafted with empathy and humour about transient joys, abiding sadnesses, persistent injustices, fleeting triumphs and unassuageable grief â the whole exasperating mess and muddle of it all. Here are poems to engage the mind, touch the heart, nudge us to laughter, and occasionally, move us to tears. |

| ISBN10-13: 1922830305 : 9781922830302 |
| 1864. Cornwall. In the wake of the Agricultural Revolution, Benjamin and Emma Bowden decide to emigrate. They are pawns in a much bigger scheme, which is to divest Britain of its poor and send them to Wakefield's Free-Colony of South Australia. During the long journey, the sailing ship is tossed like flotsam, and they eagerly disembark in Adelaide. Here they work on Samuel Davenport's farm.To make more money, they move to Moonta Mines and live on the mining lease, where danger is all around them, until Ben and William Trethowan finally acquire their freehold properties. Clearing Mallee scrub from the land is brutal and the isolation daunting. Droughts, anthrax, financial crises and typhoid hover and strike. The large Bowden and Trethowan families struggle just to survive during the Great Depression. Will their sons ever own farms of their own? Should they have stayed in Cornwall? |

| Title: Jest the Funny Bits |
| By (author): Gemma Ann White |
| ISBN10-13: 192283033X : 9781922830333 |
| Jest the Funny Bits: poems, stories and plays for children aged 9 to 12 is a collection of Bill's comic poems, plays and short stories. He had a lot of fun writing them and he really hopes you have fun reading them. However, spoiler alert, they're not for everyone. If you're a humourless sour grumpy-pants, whose face would split in two if you attempted to smile or laugh, then, whatever you do, don't read this book! Also, since it is sure to induce giggles, it is best not to read it out loud. After all, humour is contagious, so if you start laughing, you could cause of a charge of chuckles, even a gush of guffaws. We're sure you wouldn't want that on your conscience. By the end of the book, you may think the author is a very silly person. You'd be right, too, but at least he's not a humourless grumpy-pants. |

| Title: The Ship Wife |
| By (author): Gemma Ann White |
| ISBN10-13: 1922830240 : 9781922830241 |
| In 1795 Ireland, young housemaid Elizabeth is arrested, charged and convicted of sedition. On the transport ship, confined to the captain's cabin, Elizabeth must please and obey him. As his ship wife, she survives one of the most notorious transportation voyages to New South Wales. Six convicts are flogged to death. This so exceeds the usual brutality of transportation that Governor Hunter convenes a magistrate's court to hear charges against the captain. Shunned by her fellow convicts, scorned by free settlers, and pregnant with the captain's child, Elizabeth must establish a home and a life in rough Sydney Town. The Ship Wife challenges assumptions about female convict history. It tells the story of a real woman's struggle for dignity and independence in an empire built on slavery and injustice. |
| Reviews: |
|
"The Ship Wife brings to burgeoning life Irishwoman Elizabeth Rafferty, her determined, shrewd survival of casual, brutal usage, by a succession of masters, to prosper as a pardoned convict in New South Wales and later Hobart Town. With enviable skill, Anne Vines makes vibrantly real Elizabeth's abasement and recovery, her joys, terrors, loves and losses, in this finely-woven tissue of beguiling detail, rich in historical fact and lyrical invention." - Cath Kenneally, journalist, broadcaster, novelist, award-winning poet, author of Room Temperature and Around Here

"Meticulously researched and deeply empathetic, this is an unforgettable story of a woman who overcomes impossible odds to survive." - Toni Jordan, author of Prettier if She Smiled More

| Title: The Tigress Caged |
| By (author): Gemma Ann White |
| ISBN10-13: 1922830372 : 9781922830371 |
| In the third volume of the Eleanor of Acquitaine novels, Eleanor finds herself torn between her early love for Henry II of England and resistance to his constant bullying of her and her sons in his fear of being superceded by his ambitious offspring. His paranoia leads him to imprison her to curtail her powers, but this makes her only more determined to resist him and defend her birthright, while, at the same time, reining in her sons' impulses to overthrow him. Who will win out-the autocratic Henry, or the resourceful Eleanor? It seems time may be on her side. |

"The Tigress Caged, the third of Helen Rayson-Hill's novels about Eleanor of Aquitaine, is a fabulous story, full of excitement, tension, colourful personalities, danger and death. Eleanor's voice comes through loud and clear on the page, and we experience the world as she does, feel all the emotions she does, and even think the way she does. The author's command of complex historical facts is revealed in the masterful way she is able to weave them seamlessly into a vividly realised narrative. There is no doubt that Helen's novels are among the best historical fictions of recent years." -- Irina Dunn, Director, Australian Writers Network
