Dust Jacket is in as new condition, apart from normal shop shelf wear - contains no tears or chips or other damage. Dust Jacket un-clipped. All edges clean, neat and free of foxing. Multiple copies available this title. This is a reproduction of book published in 1910 by the Municipal Council of Paddington, celebrating 50 years of Paddington's history. Lavishly illustrated with reproductions of many old photos and documents. Beautifully presented. From the introduction: "Collecting and dealing in Australasian Documentary, I came upon this delightful little book about Paddington's early history... Living in Paddington myself, I was spellbound by it, and my first reaction was to reveal it to several Paddington friends, who were born in this section of our lovely city. they immediately conjured up, not only reminiscences about the times they went to school and to work, through old familiar streets shown in this book, but also those of their parents, friends and families. This richly illustrated book, hardly known by many, relates part of the history of Sydney, and even though it is parochial by being mainly about Paddington, I am sure that it will certainly also interest those who follow the historic developments of Sydney."

Well researched and comprehensive specialist account of the Western Australian water supply from1895-2003. Fascinating engineering history. From the foreword: "Charles Yelverton O'Connor was a brilliant engineer. That is self evident. he was innovative, resourceful,determined, and gifted with a razor sharp mind that found answers where others only found problems. What is perhaps not so self-evident in this Western Australian and national hero is the fact that he was capable of accomplishing many major - some would describe them as herculean - infrastructure tasks at the same time. Apart from his legendary Goldfields Pipeline, among other projects established under is watch was Fremantle Harbour, stamping him forever as one of the State's most important pioneers. A man who almost single-handedly pushed Western Australia into the 20th century." Quantity Available: 5. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos. Category: History, Australian History.

A Remarkable Venture of Faith
Hall-Matthews, Anthony
ISBN: 086445192X
Access Press, Perth, 2007.
Softcover (Stiff Boards). New Book/No Dust Jacket. First Edition. Theology & Religion. Australian History Size: Quarto. Text body is clean, and free from previous owner annotation, underlining and highlighting. Binding is tight, covers and spine fully intact. All edges clean, neat and free of foxing. Multiple copies available this title. Well-researched and fascinating history of the church in northern Australia. From the cover: "The Diocese of Carpentaria was established as a unit within the Anglican Church of Australia in August 1900 and existed until February 1966. It covered the area of the Torres Strait Islands, Cape York Peninsula, the gulf country of Queensland and the Northern Territory until 1968 when the new Diocese of the Northern territory was established. This history of the Diocese has been painstakingly researched and recorded. It was a missionary diocese engaged primarily in evangelism among indigenous people. As such it was financially dependent on the church and, in later years, the wider church found it difficult to accept and support such dioceses. The author considers that a duty of care existed that was not fully observed." Quantity Available: 3. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram. Category: Theology & Religion, Australian History.
