Synopsis Fingers Crossed Across Australia by : Lorraine J. Wise
When a diagnosis of breast cancer left Lorraine Wise with an uncertain future, she and her husband Mike decided to make the most of the challenge life had thrown them. After consulting a financial guru they decided that taking early retirement to join the ranks of the grey nomads would be a stretch, but not impossible. So they did what they never thought they would and gave up their home base, their roots and their security. Lorraine wanted to make the most of whatever time she had left. Their bucket list wasnt long, but they decided to get on with it while they could. They became intrepid travellers, exploring many parts of our beautiful country. They walked through the most spectacular gorges, snorkelled the magnificent Ningaloo Reef, traversed Australias infamous wilderness tracks, fossicked for gems, became avid bird watchers and went fishing. They took a magnificent boat ride through the Buccaneer Archipelago and experienced the amazing Horizontal Waterfall. While they did follow the tar sometimes, Lorraine and Mike often went bush to find breathtaking views, peace, relaxation and glorious sunrises and sunsets that lit up the sky. After eight wonderful years of living and loving life it is time to share their travels.

Synopsis Australia's Greatest Escapes by : Colin Burgess
Australia's greatest escape stories from two world wars Australia’s Greatest Escapes is a collection of stories about the most hazardous aspect of the prisoner of war experience – escape. Here is all the adventure, suspense and courage of ordinary Australians who defied their captors; men who tunnelled to freedom, crawled through stinking drains, or clawed a passage beneath barbed wire in a desperate attempt to flee captivity. They were willing to risk the odds and even death in the loneliest war of all – the fight to be free. Each possessed in spades the noble qualities of boldness, resourcefulness, cunning, determination and mateship we have come to admire about our Australian service men and women under adversity. Featuring stories of Australian POWs from all theatres of war, including one who fled a German work camp during World War I, another involved in a mass tunnel escape from a notorious Italian camp, and an airman who brazenly attempted to steal a German fighter and fly it back to England. We also re-live the tragic saga of the Sandakan death marches in which six Australian escapers became the only survivors from 2000 POWs, and follow the perilous journeys to freedom undertaken by Australian infantrymen following the appalling massacre of their fellow soldiers on the Japanese-held island of Ambon.

Synopsis The Controversial Bernborough by : William Stokes
The story of Bernborough is an uplifting one, decked with highs and lows, focused around the life of a phenomenal Australian racehorse. Played out from the beginning of World War II, the story includes several colourful characters along the way. Bogus records, a ring-in, massive betting coups, suspense, controversy and intrigue all feature around Bernborough. The racing stewards in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Newcastle repeatedly banned him from competing at their racetracks. Only in postwar Australia was he allowed to perform on the metropolitan racecourses. Then, within months, this amazing galloper set the nation agog. An enigmatic hero, Bernborough rapidly became a household name without anyone ever knowing all that was involved. When he was later booked for stud in Kentucky, his sale to Louis B. Mayer from MGM studios was also loaded with never-ending controversy.

Synopsis Intercultural Management by : Dirk Holtbrügge
This textbook explores the reasons for intercultural differences and their effects on the behavior of individuals and organizations within the context of management. The text embraces the presence of ambiguity and complexity and encourages critical thinking when it comes to intercultural relations in order to avoid ethnocentrism, stereotyping and prejudice, as well as overly simplistic solutions. Integrating findings from management, but also the humanities and social sciences, as well as politics and popular culture, intercultural management is understood as a phenomenon that transcends disciplinary boundaries and includes questions around identity constructions, power relations, and ethics. This makes intercultural management a fascinating and rewarding subject to study. Throughout, the author encourages an analytical approach to intercultural management built upon strong methodological foundations, and draws on examples from a wide range of different contexts and cultures to help reflectively translate research and concepts into practice in a way that is lively and engaging. This textbook is essential reading for students taking university courses related to intercultural management. Lecturers can visit the companion website to access a Teaching Guide and PowerPoint slides that can be adapted and edited to suit teaching needs. Dirk Holtbrügge is Professor of International Management at the School of Business, Economics and Society, Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany.

Synopsis The Night Hawks by : Dale Gray
The huge, slow-moving PBM seaplanes flew by day, searching out enemy shipping. In the darkness of the night they returned, to attack and destroy. Although these squadrons played a vital role in World War II, almost nothing has been published about the lives and experiences of the young men who formed the crews for these missions. This is the gritty true-to-life story of one of these crews in the Pacific theater. Sent on a suicide mission to bomb an enemy airstrip, these men soon found out that the war was not about glory and heroism, but was about hardship, pain and death. Surviving against all odds, they found that the true enemy was not the Japanese, but was the corrosive influence of the war itself.
