Written by Dr Eric Guiler, who spent decades researching the thylacine and led the last official search expeditions for surviving animals in Tasmania. This book traces the thylacine from fossil evidence and Aboriginal rock art through to the bounty hunting era, the last captive animals at Hobart Zoo, and the searches conducted after the species was declared extinct.

A collection of thylacine encounter stories compiled by Col Bailey. Bailey spent decades investigating thylacine sightings and reports across Tasmania, and was one of the best-known figures in the ongoing search for evidence that the species may have survived beyond its official extinction. Tiger Tales brings together accounts and stories collected from people who believe they have encountered a thylacine, alongside Bailey's own field experience and perspective.

A fold-out laminated field guide to the trees of Tasmania — printed life-size so you can compare leaves directly in the field. Covers the common native trees you're likely to encounter on Tasmanian bush tracks, including eucalypts, sassafras, myrtle beech, celery-top pine, King Billy pine, leatherwood and others.

The story of Alfred Barrett Biggs, pioneer in astronomy, seismology and telecommunications.
