The first volume in Norm Beechey and Dorothy Baker's history of Dover and Port Esperance — the small community on the shore of Port Esperance Bay in southern Tasmania, some 90km south of Hobart. This volume covers the earliest years of European settlement in the area from 1845 to 1875 — the establishment of the settlement, the convict station at Dover, the first families who took up land in the district, the Hope Island timber industry, the early timber-getters and farmers, and the community institutions including the Good Templars and the early churches and schools.

A History of Oatlands and Jericho by KR von Stieglitz |Out of Print 1960 SC|
Oatlands, established in 1821 and named by Governor Macquarie after a town in Surrey, England, holds Australia's largest collection of Georgian sandstone buildings in a village setting, much of it built with convict labour quarried locally from around Lake Dulverton. Nearby Jericho, one of Tasmania's oldest townships, dating from 1816 was also the site of an early convict probation station. K.R. von Stieglitz tells the history of both towns in this booklet.
