"A gentleman when the game was hard-bitten, played by rough-and-ready lads out to win whatever the cost...." Australia had few sporting heroes in the years preceding its federation in 1901. But before its 20th-century Olympic trailblazers, and Depression-era icons such as Phar Lap and Don Bradman, came an Australian sporting pioneer who was celebrated on the most glamorous stage in the world--American major league baseball. Joe Quinn's story has long been lost in the land of his birth. This tale gallops from the deprivation of famine-ravaged Ireland through colonial Australia to the raucous ballfields of 19th-century America, with their unruly players and owners, brawls and adulation and backroom betrayals. Through 17 seasons in the major leagues, "Undertaker" Joe Quinn earned his place among the colorful characters who pioneered the modern game of baseball, as much for his ability to stand apart from their bad behavior as for his steadfastness on the field. Meet Australia's first professional baseball player and manager, whose willingness to "have a go" in the grand Australian tradition will live long in the minds of sports fans on both sides of the Pacific.

Edward and Eliza Lord came to Moreton Bay in 1844, arriving as the remote convict outpost was opened up for free settlement. Members of Lancashire merchant families, they had invested their inheritances in NSW lands and a Sydney merchant firm, just before the drought and crash of 1841. They moved north to rebuild their fortunes, settling at Kangaroo Point before moving to the Darling Downs to start new commercial interests. Although financial success continued to elude them, the Lord family contributed to the settlement of colonial Queensland. Edward and Eliza’s great-great-grand-daughter, Janet Spillman, explores the way Queensland moulded the Lord family’s lives, and the way family members contributed to the colony’s development.

The history of one of Australia's oldest girls' schools, published for their 150th anniversary. Some nuns hid behind convent walls, but not the Good Sams. In 1873, Mother de Sales Maloney started teaching at the small timber hut by St Xavier's Church on South Beach. To start with, the sisters had some trouble taming the barefoot colonial girls of Wollongong, but in a decade, St Mary Star of the Sea girls were regularly passing the annual university entrance exams. Over the decades the school grew and added buildings, the curriculum expanded, and skirt hems rose and fell. Through world wars, strikes and depressions, St Mary's encouraged young women to challenge social constraints of their time, while championing compassion and social justice. The magnificent frangipani that adorned the entrance to the College has toppled over, and the last of the nuns has retired. The Benedictine spirit lives on in a school community that changes with the times, nurturing girls of all backgrounds and helping them grow into women of faith and integrity. This is the story of one of the finest and oldest schools in Australia.
