Alison Alexander's biography of Max Angus — one of Tasmania's most significant artists of the 20th century, whose watercolours documented the Tasmanian landscape across a century of life from 1905 to 2012.
Max Angus's history of watercolour painting, tracing the medium from its origins in Europe through to its use by the artists and topographers who accompanied early explorers and colonial expeditions to Van Diemen's Land and New South Wales. Angus was one of Tasmania's most significant artists and art historians of the 20th century — his own watercolours documented the Tasmanian landscape over six decades, and his art historical writing brought the work of colonial Tasmanian artists to wider attention
K.R. von Stieglitz's short history of Ross — the historic Midlands town on the Macquarie River about 10 minutes south of Campbell Town, known for its Georgian streetscape, the convict-carved Ross Bridge (1836) and its position as one of the best-preserved colonial towns in Australia. Ross is also becoming known as a dark sky destination — the surrounding Midlands countryside offers some of the best stargazing conditions in Tasmania.
The story of small trading craft plying Tasmania's bays, rivers and inlets, centred on the SS Reemere — a steamship launched in 1909 — and the campaign to preserve and restore her.
