Building Tasmania's hydroelectric power system was one of the largest and most ambitious engineering undertakings in the state's history, carried out over nearly a century in some of the most remote and difficult terrain in the country. Ticklebelly Tales tells that story through the people who actually did the work — the construction workers, engineers and families who lived in the temporary townships built around the dam and power station sites, often in genuinely harsh conditions, from 1910 through to 2006.

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.
Tasmania has a long and unusual cricketing story: the colony played in the first first-class cricket match in Australia, defeating Victoria by three wickets in 1851, and produced fine cricketers through the late 19th century, but was overlooked when the Sheffield Shield was established in 1892 and not admitted to that competition until 1977.
