Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1964, The Legends of Moonie Jarl,, the first Australian Aboriginal children's book, was published. It was also the first Aboriginal children's book in schools at that time. Over 50 years later the stories continue to be shared among the Butchulla people. Stories that they would like again shared by all Australian children. The book tells the traditional stories of the Butchulla people, the Indigenous people of Fraser Island and the Fraser Coast, Queensland. It was written and designed by Butchulla siblings Moonie Jarl (Wilf Reeves) and Wandi (Olga Miller). The Legends of Moonie Jarl gives a deeper understanding and appreciation of Butchulla culture among the broader community, and contributes to community pride locally. These are the stories that were taught about the origin of birds, animals and plants. These are the stories which belong to all Australian children, for their own birds and animals are the subjects of legends which have been handed down since the First Time. In this book you will learn how the wallaby got its pouch, how the boomerang was invented, how the swan stretched its neck and why the flying fox hangs upside down. "My father, who was a head-man of the Butchulla, told us many things in the evenings before we went to sleep. He would tell us the stories or legends of our people, some of which are similar to the fairy tales you heard when you were young. I learned from my father many things." —Moonie Jarl

In fact, Maryborough is dominated by Hervey Bay which is twice the size. Together with Gympie and Bundaberg, these two cities are a part of the Wide Bay Burnett Region.Our book provides a glimpse of Maryborough's interesting history and heritage.At the heart of the book are contemporary photographs and descriptions of 10 general heritage-listed buildings and the six heritage-listed hotels in Maryborough. We also investigate four topics in detail:* A consideration of key aspects of Maryborough such as the Port of Maryborough, the Mary River, railways, war memorials, Queens Park and a statistical profile (population, employment, education).* A discussion of how Maryborough was settled with a focus on the first 20 years and its explorers and pioneers. Our first 20 years for Maryborough extend from Andrew Petrie's ground-breaking voyage up the Mary River in 1842 until Maryborough was proclaimed a municipality in 1861. * An account of the trials, tribulations and exploits of the indigenous Butchulla people. We examine the difficulties in researching the indigenous people, the population, early European contact, the frontier wars, government control and reserves, the confronting issue of our time, and recent acknowledgements in the plight of Australia's indigenous people.* A brief study of the timber, sugar and engineering industries so important to Maryborough's survival. These industries have been mainstays of Maryborough since the 1860s and 1870s.

Book excerpt: This book recounts the life stories of a small group of Queensland 9th Battalion Anzacs who hold the unique honour of being the first soldiers ashore at the Gallipoli landing in 1915. For World War 1 Diggers, their identity was a serious and sometimes contentious matter of battalion pride. Over the decades, these first Anzacs have gained a significant place in the Anzac Legend. Extensive research has confidently identified 26 of the approximate 30 Anzacs who were in this first boat ashore. Their life stories are retold to intimately reveal the war experiences of ordinary Australians. Heroic actions and horrendous ordeals are highlighted. Mateship, self-sacrifice, dedication to duty and changing identity are recurring themes. While many of those who survived returned home to broken lives, for some, the unique and proud identity as first ashore, 'original' Anzacs inspired strength and leadership. Important contributions were made to the post-war community and veteran affairs.
