EARLY MORNING, 1 DECEMBER 1876:
There is something about this morning — a quiet in the hills, a shiver in the air — something that prickles the nose of the stockman's horse.
A DRAMATIC shipwreck
a DARING rescue
an ASTONISHING true story
An evocative retelling of the wreck of the SS Georgette off the coast of Western Australia in 1876, this inspiring account chronicles the heroic efforts of 16-year-old Grace Bussell and Sam Isaacs, an Aboriginal stockman.
Lavishly illustrated, this mixed media book depicts Bussell and Isaacs as they rescue 50 passengers and crew.

The truth about the assault on Gallipoli is finally being told
— in an action-packed graphic novel format!
Gallipoli: The Landing
takes the events of 25 April 1915 and presents them in a full-colour comic that's both action-packed and historically accurate. Rather than a botched attack planned by indifferent British generals, the Gallipoli campaign was carefully thought out and included an amphibious attack on the beach by Anzac officers.
Hugh Dolan and Mal Gardiner bring the real story to life, describing the lead-up and the attack on Gallipoli in detail — from both sides of the fighting. Including biographies of all the key military figures as well as detail about the preparations for the landing itself,
Gallipoli: The Landing
dispels many myths associated with the Gallipoli campaign and establishes some of the reasons why the campaign in the Dardanelles eventually failed.

This powerful biography provides an in-depth look at Nelson Mandela who grew up in a rural village in South Africa under racist apartheid rule — a regime he ultimately helped overthrow.
Denenberg explores the history of South Africa and its often violent struggle for civil rights, while tracing Mandela's role in that history. Lawyer, leader of the African National Congress, political prisoner who spent 26 years in jail, president — no one else has had such enormous influence on his fellow South Africans. Even beyond South Africa Nelson Mandela has influenced freedom fighters everywhere.
This latest biography traces Mandela's complete life story.

Nancy Bentley was bitten by a snake on the shores of Port Arthur in Tasmania. There was no medical help nearby so Nancy's father rowed her out to the HMAS Sydney in the bay.
In 1920 women were not allowed on naval vessels. In order to comply with regulations Nancy Bentley was enlisted into the Royal Australian Navy. Nancy was six years of age and the first female to be inducted into the Royal Australian Navy. The Navy looked after her for eight days before discharging her because she was 'required by her parents'.
A moving and fascinating true story.
