Synopsis The Sandhills: An Historic Cemetery by : A. G. Foster

The Sandhills is a nonfiction book about a famous and historic cemetery in Sydney, Australia. Excerpt: "The name Devonshire Street Cemetery could fairly be applied to those sections which faced or extended to that street, but is somewhat of a misnomer when describing the original Burial Ground, which faced Belmore Park. For lack of a better name, I and others refer to it as the "Sandhills Cemetery."

Synopsis A Forger's Progress by : Alasdair McGregor

A forger and convicted felon, Francis Greenway was transported to Sydney in 1814. Only a decade later, his dreams of a "city superior in architectural beauty to London" began to be realized as he designed Hyde Park Barracks, St James' Church, the Supreme Court, St Luke's Church in Liverpool, and the Windsor courthouse. In this first biography of Greenway since 1953, award-winning author Alasdair McGregor scrutinizes the character and creative output of a man beset by contradictions and demons. He profiles Greenway's landmark buildings, his complex and fraught relationship with Governor Lachlan Macquarie, and his thwarted ambitions and self-destruction.

Synopsis Coast by : Ian Hoskins

From Eden to Byron Bay the New South Wales coast is more than 2000 kilometres long, with 130 estuaries, 100 coastal lakes and a rich history. This, the first history written of the New South Wales coast, traces our relationship with this stretch of land and sea starting millennia ago when Aboriginal people feasted on shellfish and perfected the art of building bark canoes, to our present obsession with the beach as a place to live or holiday. Leading us through the European fascination with marine life, the attempts to establish a whaling industry, the fear of seaborne invasion which led to the creation of a navy of our own in 1911 through to the rise of our unstoppable enthusiasm for surfing and fishing, Ian Hoskins argues that our current enthralment with the coast began more recently than we might think.
