Biography
Biographies and memoirs of the people who shaped Tasmania – settlers, pioneers, convicts, politicians, farmers, mariners and ordinary Tasmanians whose life stories were written down. Many of these are self-published or small-run family histories that are genuinely hard to find elsewhere, alongside more widely published biographies of well-known Tasmanian figures.
