Just Tassie Books

Paul Helleman's account of deaths and disappearances in Tasmania's national parks, reserves and wild places —  covering incidents from across the island's wilderness areas, indexed and thoroughly researched. The book documents what can go wrong when people venture into Tasmania's bush and mountains: walkers lost on the Overland Track, incidents in the Southwest, disappearances never resolved, and the search and rescue operations that followed. signed

Meg Bignell's second novel — set in a fictional small Tasmanian coastal community where nothing much happens and everything matters. A woman who has always run from anything too real finds herself stranded in Nowhere River — a ramshackle town on the edge of nowhere, full of characters who've also washed up there for their own reasons.

Seafield Deuchar (born Brisbane, 1886) studied at Cambridge before settling near Wynyard in Tasmania's north-west in 1916, taking up and clearing pioneering farmland near Trowutta. This book, illustrated throughout with Deuchar's own paintings, covers clearing the forest, building the family home, water supply, early agriculture and exploration of the district, and the pioneers of Trowutta and district.
