The Trappers Promise
Bronwyn Trotter's "The Trappers Promise" is a hard hitting Novel set in the wilds of the Rockies: where only the toughest of women can surive. ‘Born on a mountain in the Rockies where wolves are hunted for their valuable skins, Sarah Cole has to contend with trapping wolves and nineteen trappers. Four of whom have made a promise to her father to look out for her if he should be killed. When her father dies during a card game, she loses her winter home Mountain View Lodge and is thrust into the care of the trappers. Finding that men are now looking at her more as a woman than a trapper, Sarah finds battling vicious wolves is far easier than dealing with them and a wealthy rancher Major Hardy trying to stop her from becoming friendly with his son Frank. Major Hardy’s idea of a wife for Frank is Millicent Crawley, daughter of the general store owner. Sarah will do what she has to, even if it means using the wolves to get her son, stolen from her by his grandfather, back to her.’
Cedar Creek
Bronwyn Trotters ‘Cedar Creek’ – Book Two of The Trappers Promise trilogy, continues the intriguing story of Sarah Cole: A trapper, born and raised in the wilds of the Rockies. Winter has arrived with a vengeance! The trappers have left the mountain to get paid for their skins so they can get supplies to see them through next year’s trapping, but Sarah hates Cedar Creek. The day she and her son Thomas ride in, she clashes with new sheriff Christian Morgan, a man with a past he is trying hard to keep buried, and they become embroiled in a stormy relationship. Setting up camp on the riverbank below town just like she has done every winter for the past twelve years suits Sarah just fine...
Sarah’s Mountain
Sarah is as good a trapper as the men that hunt wolves, and the Rocky Mountains where she was raised beckon her to come home, but how can she return there, now that she has settled in Cedar Creek? Death and destruction have a way of finding her no matter where she lives, and that continues to plague the trappers. Secrets held are like promises made. They can’t be kept forever! In her third book ‘Sarah’s Mountain’ author Bronwyn Trotter brings suspense-filled moments and a surprising twist to the conclusion of the Trappers Promise Trilogy.
Information Technology in Schools
The second edition of Herring's book has been entirely rewritten and includes seven new case studies containing information on recent technology changes in both the hardware and software available for use in schools. The case studies focus on the need for teacher/school librarian cooperation in developing IT programmes that relate to the curriculum. These practical essays are supported by illustrations, tables and graphs, and are written in non-technical language with some references for further reading. Topics covered include: information skills, software selection, database creation, issue systems, in-service training. Recent developments in CD-ROM hypertext, and the use of multimedia are reported. This is a book for school librarians and teachers wishing to exploit IT for curricular ends, as well as for paraprofessionals involved in school library work.

The Palgrave Handbook of Australian and New Zealand Criminology, Crime and Justice
This handbook engages key debates in Australian and New Zealand criminology over the last 50 years. In six sections, containing 56 original chapters, leading researchers and practitioners investigate topics such as the history of criminology; crime and justice data; law reform; gangs; youth crime; violent, white collar and rural crime; cybercrime; terrorism; sentencing; Indigenous courts; child witnesses and children of prisoners; police complaints processes; gun laws; alcohol policies; and criminal profiling. Key sections highlight criminological theory and, crucially, Indigenous issues and perspectives on criminal justice. Contributors examine the implications of past and current trends in official data collection, crime policy, and academic investigation to build up an understanding of under-researched and emerging problem areas for future research. An authoritative and comprehensive text, this handbook constitutes a long-awaited and necessary resource for dedicated academics, public policy analysts, and university students.
Unfolding Afterglow
This title examines professional learning in the contemporary milieu of public education, considering the impact of No Child Left Behind and Race to the Top on such encounters for art educators. Drawing from prominent scholars of philosophy and education (Greene, Dewey, Gadamer), aesthetic experiential play is theorized as a catalyst for teacher renewal through the embodied intensities (Merleau Ponty, Deleuze) it prompts: an aesthetic swell and afterglow. The swell is conceptualized as a movement that unmoors teachers as learners, setting them adrift towards unanticipated, surprising possibilities. Afterglow is an illuminated space that unfolds with a commitment and openness to move in swell...
Elizabeth von Arnim
In the first book-length treatment of Elizabeth von Arnim's fiction, Isobel Maddison examines her work in its historical and intellectual contexts, demonstrating that von Arnim's fine comic writing and complex and compelling narrative style reward close analysis. Organised chronologically and thematically, Maddison's book is informed by unpublished material from the British and Huntington Libraries, including correspondence between von Arnim, her publishers and prominent contemporaries such as H.G. Wells, Bertrand Russell and her cousin Katherine Mansfield -- whose early modernist prose is seen as indebted to von Arnim's earlier literary influence. Maddison's exploration of the novelist's cr...
The Wind Queen
This is a reflective story about a woman by the name of Elspeth Abney who lived in the Australian High Country located in the Snowy Mountains, New South Wales and her life expressed in her very final moments of living. As the dying woman breaths in and out; transitioning through the sky gate to heaven, the story unfolds into a pictorial display of beautifying natural inferences. Elspeth’s life memoires are subtly sketched through memory nuances of the open plains and bushy scapes, a powerful bird of prey and other natural influences like the bush fragrances, wildflowers and the Swallowtail butterfly; but, more importantly, it is a poetic narrative about her fight against a jealous witch cognate woman.
