Beyond Awakening: The Aboriginal Tribes of North West Tasmania: A History
Grease and Ochre: The Blending of Two Cultures at the Colonial Sea Frontier
Grease and Ochre is third in the series Studies in the History of Aboriginal Tasmania published by Fullers Bookshop. It is the story of the Coastal Plains people in Tasmania’s North East, their struggle and ultimately their survival.
Levee, Line and Martial Law: A History of the Dispossession of the Mairremmener People of Van Diemen's Land 1803-1832
The story of the Mairremmener people, better known as the Oyster Bay Tribe and the Big River Tribe, but by reason of a common language and a single culture, one people. Dr Calder traces their history from prehistory, through the arrival of white people on to their organised resistance against the invaders of their land and their eventual capitulation.
Metal Mining in Tasmania
"This important new book is replete with insights into the development of metal mining in Tasmania and is based on a deep knowledge of primary sources." A detailed account of one of Tasmania's most important and influential industries and the complex and often fraught interplay between politicians, bureaucrats, geologists and entrepreneurs.
Tasmanian Plant Names Unraveled
Tasmanian Plant Names Unraveled is the first comprehensive species-by-species guide to the origin and meaning of the scientific and common names of the 2750 vascular plants native and naturalised in Tasmania.
Lavishly illustrated, this book will appeal to Tasmanian botanists, naturalists and gardeners. It will be equally useful in southeastern mainland states, which share much of the Tasmanian flora.
