Download or read book Victor Harbor written by Deb Kandelaars and published by Wakefield Press. This book was released on 2019-10-29 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a view imprinted on the retina of most South Australians - that majestic vista as you drive into Victor Harbor taking in the town, Granite Island and The Bluff. This is a place of lazy summer holidays, rides on the horse-drawn tram, strolls around Granite Island with an ice cream, fish and chips on the lawn, a cosy winter weekend - a happy place to slow down and relax with loved ones. In this beautiful book, you'll find all this and more as stories from history, newspapers, interviews and oral histories, along with hundreds of images, bring to life the people and places that make Victor Harbor a coveted destination and place to live. You'll meet a host of remarkable people, from the Ramindjeri with their deep spiritual and cultural connection to the land and sea, to the European settlers and the profound change they brought about. Essential to Victor's story are the rough and ready whalers and fishers who once braved the seas of the rugged South Coast. So, too, those involved in community organisations, tourism, agriculture, conservation, business, sport and the arts - trailblazers and local legends pivotal to the social fabric of the town. Victor Harbor: Down beside the sea is the fascinating story of how Victor Harbor came to be, told by the people who live and work in this breathtakingly beautiful coastal locale. Whether you reconnect with Victor Harbor in your armchair or decide to travel from afar to discover the place for yourself, you'll find there's plenty going on 'down beside the sea'.
Download or read book Bert Edwards written by Patricia Sumerling and published by Wakefield Press. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Albert Augustine Edwards, usually referred to as 'Bert', was one of Adelaide's most flamboyant characters. Reputedly the illegitimate son of Charles Cameron Kingston, premier of South Australia, he was born in obscurity in the slums of Adelaide's West End in 1888. A self-made man, Bert was a city councillor, parliamentarian, and philanthropist, a friend of the poor and scourge of the establishment. He had connections and influence everywhere - in the markets, pubs, sporting clubs, churches and prisons - and soon enough he became known as the 'King of the West End'. Flash in dress and loud in manner, he brooked no opposition. Bert's future looked rosy, until 1924, when the Labor Party took office and his enemies began to stack up quickly. It all came crashing down in 1931. In a sex scandal engineered against him, Bert was imprisoned for nearly two-and-a half years for gross indecency with an underage male. And they say Adelaide was dull! Here, dark and bright, is Bert Edwards in the full biography that his colourful life deserves.

Book excerpt: Beaches are places of contact, play, confrontation and friction: first comers always arrive on a beach. After Europeans moved into the Antipodes, the coast was the first frontier to be defined. Flinders' circumnavigation in 1802 had mapped 'Australia', revealing the land as 'girt by sea', as the national anthem continues to remind us. All kinds of ideas about the coast, beaches, sea changes, holiday places and islands swirl and eddy in this unique collection of writing.

Download or read book The Terrability written by Rin Petweed and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Terrability is an environmental thriller set in the late 20th century, in which a group of talented, lateral-thinking people from around the world collaborate to establish an experimental design base to combat ecological disaster. Despite a few hiccups, the base comes to fruition in a secret remote location in Central Australia and results in a modern day paradise. The focus of the base is to demonstrate how society could live in harmony with the earth’s ecology – and with each other – via the practical application of progressive techniques in the fields of habitation, cultivation, recreation, communication, and energy. However, transmitting the results of this successful experiment to the outside world becomes fraught with danger to its inhabitants, which include a legendary super race of indigenous Australians.
