Rees Campbell, author of the bestselling Eat MORE Wild Tasmanian, turns her attention to Tasmania's off-shore islands. There are some 6,500 islands, islets, rocks and reefs around the state, and this book visits 40 of them — from the largest, Flinders Island, to the remote and uninhabited Pedra Branca and Mewstone in the Southern Ocean, to some of the smallest and closest, like the Harbour Islets in the state's far North West.
A close study of the 186 carved decorations on the Ross Bridge — the convict-built sandstone bridge that has spanned the Macquarie River at Ross since 1836, and one of the most visited historic sites in Tasmania. The carvings were the work of Daniel Herbert, a transported convict who was a stonemason by trade.

A comprehensive modern compendium and personal memoir documenting the extraordinarily diverse birdlife of Lutruwita / Tasmania. Compiled by Els Wakefield, one of the state's most experienced lifelong birders, this heavy large-format volume acts as both a detailed reference work and a visual celebration of the island's avian fauna.
When the coastal freighter MV Blythe Star left Hobart on a routine trip, Mick Doleman was an 18-year-old deckhand working alongside nine other crewmen, all accustomed to the dangers of the sea. But nothing could prepare them for what happened less than 24 hours later.
The second volume of Nic Haygarth's collection of stories from the Tasmanian bush — 300 pages of tales drawn from the back blocks of the island, covering the people, places and ways of life that define rural and remote Tasmania. Haygarth has spent years researching and writing about Tasmanian bush history, and this second volume follows the same approach as the first — oral histories, anecdotes, characters and incidents from across the state's rural and wilderness fringes.
The revised and updated edition of Peter Manchester's guide to Tasmania's geological landscape, covering 104 observable geological features across the island — including four new offshore island sites not in the original edition. The 2010 first edition has been out of print for nearly a decade. This 2025 revision replaces a number of the original sites with more accessible and relevant locations, and brings the science up to date.
