The second volume in Norm Beechey and Dorothy Baker's history of Dover and Port Esperance, covering the later years from 1875 to 1925. This volume picks up where Volume 1 left off — documenting the development of the district through the sawmilling era, apple growing and the challenges of codlin moth, the trade union movement in the timber industry, the extension of the electric telegraph, the local steamers Ivy, Reliance and Dover that connected the community to Hobart, WWI soldiers, Spanish flu, whaling, and the eucalyptus oil distillation industry.
![A History of Evandale | K.R. von Stieglitz | c.1967 [USED – SC – Out of Print]](https://onlinestore.bookcellar.com.au/images/T/a-history-of-evandale-eTNtKz.png "A History of Evandale | K.R. von Stieglitz | c.1967 [USED – SC – Out of Print]")
K.R. von Stieglitz's short history of Evandale — one of the best-preserved colonial towns in northern Tasmania, situated on the South Esk River south of Launceston. Evandale was gazetted in 1836 and its streetscape of Georgian and colonial architecture remains largely intact, giving it a distinctive character among Tasmanian towns.
![A History of Goldmining on the Tasmanian West Coast - Corinna, Mt Heemskirk & the Pieman River gold rush | Hans Julen | 1981 [USED – SC – Out of Print]](https://onlinestore.bookcellar.com.au/images/T/history-of-goldmining-westcoast-lw04U6.png "A History of Goldmining on the Tasmanian West Coast - Corinna, Mt Heemskirk & the Pieman River gold rush | Hans Julen | 1981 [USED – SC – Out of Print]")
Gold was discovered in the tributaries of the Pieman River from the late 1870s, and the boomtown of Corinna sprang up at a key river crossing point, becoming a jumping-off point for prospectors pushing on to Mount Heemskirk, Zeehan and Mount Lyell.
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.
Faye Gardam's history of Port Sorell covers the district from Aboriginal occupation through to 1994 — the naming and surveying of the area, its streets and features, buildings and organisations, and local flora and fauna, along with a chapter of local stories ("A Few Good Stories!").
The Circular Head District Agricultural, Pastoral, Horticultural and Poultry Association held its first show in November 1907, on what was then the old cricket ground.
Henry Reynolds' history of Tasmania charts the history of Tasmania from the arrival of European maritime expeditions in the late 18th century, through to the modern day.
