Synopsis Racial Folly by : Gordon Briscoe

Briscoe's grandmother remembered stories about the first white men coming to the Northern Territory. This extraordinary memoir shows us the history of an Aboriginal family who lived under the race laws, practices and policies of Australia in the twentieth century. It tells the story of a people trapped in ideological folly spawned to solve 'the half-caste problem'. It gives life to those generations of Aboriginal people assumed to have no history and whose past labels them only as shadowy figures. Briscoe's enthralling narrative combines his, and his contemporaries, institutional and family life with a high-level career at the heart of the Aboriginal political movement at its most dynamic time. It also documents the road he travelled as a seventeen year old fireman on the South Australia Railways to becoming the first Aboriginal person to achieve a PhD in history.

Synopsis Shooting Stars of the Small Screen by : Douglas Brode

Since the beginning of television, Westerns have been playing on the small screen. From the mid-1950s until the early 1960s, they were one of TV's most popular genres, with millions of viewers tuning in to such popular shows as Rawhide, Gunsmoke, and Disney's Davy Crockett. Though the cultural revolution of the later 1960s contributed to the demise of traditional Western programs, the Western never actually disappeared from TV. Instead, it took on new forms, such as the highly popular Lonesome Dove and Deadwood, while exploring the lives of characters who never before had a starring role, including anti-heroes, mountain men, farmers, Native and African Americans, Latinos, and women. Shooting Stars of the Small Screen is a comprehensive encyclopedia of more than 450 actors who received star billing or played a recurring character role in a TV Western series or a made-for-TV Western movie or miniseries from the late 1940s up to 2008. Douglas Brode covers the highlights of each actor's career, including Western movie work, if significant, to give a full sense of the actor's screen persona(s). Within the entries are discussions of scores of popular Western TV shows that explore how these programs both reflected and impacted the social world in which they aired. Brode opens the encyclopedia with a fascinating history of the TV Western that traces its roots in B Western movies, while also showing how TV Westerns developed their own unique storytelling conventions.

Synopsis A MARRIAGE OF INSECTS by : Bard Bloom

"MARRIED'S A JOB FOR EVERYBODY. LOVE'S THE LUXURY." The last time Rajel had seen the her husband and mari was nearly three decades ago, when they were married as young children to secure their titles and their mutual future. An adventurer doesn't have much time to think about family, or love, but when a close call puts things in perspective, Rajel calls her spouses to her to begin their married life. Boragette's grown up as a sweet cosi who only wants to do the things a co-lover should: cook, sew, and please everyone. Casamint's become an arrogant scholar-bug with no respect for the rustic life, nor for brawny women wielding three-handed swords. And Rajel's a hard-bitten adventurer, more comfortable with her wild Sleeth companion than with her spouses or country home. They don't get along terribly well, even though they want to and need to. So, when an enchanter offers Rajel a nice safe job as a bodyguard in his aeronautical mansion for a few months, Boragette and Casamint come along too. Though with a beautiful agent provocateur on board and a village full of monsters outside, it's not quite the simple romantic idyll they were hoping for.

Synopsis That Winter by : Pamela Gillilan

Pamela Gillilan was born in London in 1918, married in 1948 and moved to Cornwall in 1951. When she sat down to write her poem Come Away after the death of her husband David, she had written no poems for a quarter of a century. Then came a sequence of incredibly moving elegies. Other poems followed, and two years after starting to write again, she won the Cheltenham Festival poetry competition. Her first collection That Winter (Bloodaxe, 1986) was shortlisted for the Commonwealth Poetry Prize.
