The fascinating lives and turbulent times of Henry Lawson and Andrew 'Banjo' Paterson - the two men who wrote Australia's story. Today most of us know that Henry Lawson and Andrew 'Banjo' Paterson were famous writers. We know about Matilda, Clancy of the Overflow and the Man from Snowy River; The Drover's Wife, While the Billy Boils and Joe Wilson and his mates, but little else. Here, in a compelling and engaging work, James Knight brings Henry and Banjo's own stories to life. And there is much to tell. Both were country born, just three years and three hundred kilometres apart, Henry on the goldfields of Grenfell and Banjo on a property near Orange, but their paths to literary immortality t...

Joseph Knight

A gripping, shocking story of history, enlightement and slavery ... Exiled to Jamaica after the Battle of Culloden in 1746, Sir John Wedderburn made a fortune, alongside his three brothers, as a faux surgeon and sugar planter. In the 1770s, he returned to Scotland to marry and re-establish the family name. He brought with him Joseph Knight, a black slave and a token of his years in the Caribbean. Now, in 1802, Sir John Wedderburn is settling his estate, and has hired a solicitor's agent, Archibald Jamieson, to search for his former slave. The past has haunted Wedderburn ever since Culloden, and ever since he last saw Knight, in court twenty-four years ago, in a case that went to the heart of...

Approaching forty, with the predictable mortgage, career and comfortable surburan lifestyle, James Knight knew he was one of the lucky ones. He loved his wife and he had his health (occasionally the black dog would bite, but he'd learnt to manage this...most of the time), yet something wasn't quite right. Married less than a year, he and Clare weren't finding time for each other or themselves. Surely there must be more to life than the daily commute, the occasional trip away and rampant consumerism? The death of a good friend's mother gave James the perspective he needed to set out on a year-long journey through Latin America and Africa with Clare, doing voluntary work, learning Spanish and dancing whereever and whenever they could. This trip would change their lives in ways they never expected, teaching them that cherishing every moment is what matters above all else.

A Discourse on the Conflagration and Renovation of the World. by ... James Knight, ... to Which Is Added Some Account of His Life

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence prese...

James Knight

Es ist egal, wie schnell oder wie weit du läufst – die Vergangenheit holt dich ein. Immer! Etwas, das James Knight zu spüren bekommt, als er zum ersten Mal wieder in die Augen der einzigen Frau blickt, die ihm jemals etwas bedeutet hat: Ally Moore. Die Schwester seines besten Freundes, dessen Blut an seinen Händen klebt. James ist verantwortlich für den Schmerz in ihren Augen, für das Leid und den Hass. All die Zeit, die vergangen ist, all die Einsamkeit auf seiner Farm in Treboka Hights, ändern nichts an seiner Schuld, seinem Verhalten oder seinen Taten. Als James durch einen Schicksalsschlag innerhalb seiner Familie gezwungen wird, nach New York zurückzukehren, gibt es keinen Ausweg, als sich der Wahrheit zu stellen. Es beginnt ein gefährliches Spiel mit seiner dunklen Seite, mit den Dämonen, die nur Ally kennt. Doch wieso sollte ausgerechnet sie an seiner Seite sein und ihm helfen, nach allem, was er ihr angetan hat? Liebe – Schuld – Hass – Verlangen – Leidenschaft. Der zweite Band der Knight-Reihe. Bist du bereit für James Knight? Alle Bände der Knight Reihe können unabhängig voneinander gelesen werden.

After fleeing their homeland, Australian refugee policies threaten to tear this young couple apart. An unforgettable story of love, hope and a quest for freedom. At seventeen, all Mojgan Shamsalipoor wanted was to be safe from physical and sexual abuse, go to school, and to eventually marry for love. In Iran, she was denied all of this. Milad Jafari was a shy teenage boy who found his voice as a musician. But the rap music he loved was illegal in his country. All Milad's father, a key maker, builder and shopkeeper, wanted was for his family to live free from the fear of arrest, imprisonment or execution. To do that they all had to flee Iran. Mojgan and Milad met in Australia. But in the mont...
