Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book showcases current research into Indigenous and minority placenames in Australia and internationally. Many of the chapters in this volume originated as papers at a Trends in Toponymy conference hosted by the University of Ballarat in 2007 that featured Australian and international speakers. The chapters in this volume provide insight into the quality of toponymic research that is being undertaken in Australia and in countries such as Canada, Finland, South Africa, New Zealand, and Norway. The research presented here draws on the disciplines of linguistics, geography, history, and anthropology. The book includes meticulous studies of placenames in central NSW and the Upper Hunter region; Gundungurra cave names; western Arnhem Land; Northern Cape York Peninsula and Mount Wheeler in Queensland; saltwater placenames around Mer in the Torres Strait; and the Kaurna in South Australia.

Download or read book A History of the Port Phillip District written by A. G. L. Shaw and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This account of European settlement in the modern state of Victoria, Australia, spans developments from the first convict camp established in 1803 on the Bass Strait to the contemporary separation of the district from New South Wales. Aborigines, whalers, adventurers, squatters, speculators, and immigrants figure into this history of Victoria before the gold rush. The stories of such key leaders as John Baton and John Pascoe Fawkner offer insight into the founding of Melbourne, the economic depression and recovery of the 19th century, and the social progress of the 20th century. Details are drawn from primary sources including correspondence between officials in Melbourne, Sydney, and London and newspapers from Batman, Swanston, the Port Phillip Association, and La Trobe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although shearers have been the heroes of the Australian labour movement's most enduring legends, here John Merritt argues that their reputation as militants has been greatly exaggerated. Based on union and pastoralists' records, this book is a comprehensive account of the events that produced the legends and offers many challenges to the historiography of the 1890s.

Download or read book The People s Party written by Frank Bongiorno and published by Melbourne University. This book was released on 1996 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Victorian Labor Party came into being in the midst of the great strikes of the early 1890s, and in the shadow of a crippling economic depression that was to send trade unionism into retreat throughout Australia. This was the background against which the new party faced the task of establishing itself as an independent force in a colony where working-class electors had customarily looked to the middle class for political leadership. In The People's Party, Frank Bongiorno gives a lively account of the infant Labor Party's attempts to find common ground between the competing demands of inner-city workers and farmers, Catholics and Protestants, trade unionists and disaffected liberals, teetotallers and boozers, socialists and feminists. He probes the sources of Labor's political language, and explores its lingering debt to a radical tradition that harked back to a golden age of manly independence and social egalitarianism. The Victorian Labor Party emerges from these pages as 'a process rather than a thing, as contested ground rather than conquered territory'.
