Index of Births, Deaths, Marriages, and Divorces in Fairbanks, Alaska Newspapers 1903-1930
This is an index to births, deaths, marriages and divorces as recorded in early Fairbanks, Alaska newspapers (1903 – 1930) for individuals who were affiliated in some way with Alaska or bordering communities in Canada. The Fairbanks newspapers that existed during this period and, therefore, were selected for indexing, were the Fairbanks News (September 1903 – May 1905), the Fairbanks Evening News (May 1905 – June 1907), the Fairbanks Daily News (June 1907 – March 18, 1909) and the Fairbanks Daily News Miner (May 22, 1909 to present).
Loved and Feared
Mention the Winter Hill Gang and most people immediately think of James “Whitey” Bulger. But Bulger was not the founder of the gang. He was not even the second leader. That title belonged to Howard T. Winter. The gang, named after a Somerville, Massachusetts, neighborhood, came about during the late 1940s when a teenager from Somerville recruited a few of his friends to help pilfer some goods from the nearby Charlestown ship docks. The friends soon discovered how lucrative that could be. They were prepared to follow the lead of their pal in what became the Winter Hill Gang. The friend was Buddy McLean. Larry Leavitt states: “When I was a young boy, my father told me stories about Buddy...
Dirty Secrets
In this moving, funny and sometimes chilling book, leading Australians open their ASIO files and read what the state's security apparatus said about them. Writers from across the political spectrum including Mark Aarons, Phillip Adams, Nadia Wheatley, Michael Kirby, Peter Cundall, Gary Foley and Anne Summers confront – and in some cases reclaim – their pasts. Reflecting on the interpretations, observations and proclamations that anonymous officials make about your personal life is not easy. Yet we see outrage mixed with humour, not least as ASIO officers got basic information wrong a lot of the time, though many writers have to contend with personal betrayal. Some reflect on the way their political views have – or haven’t – changed. Meredith Burgmann and all those who were spied on have produced an extraordinary book where those being watched look right back.

Sisters in Peace
Is preparing for war the best means of preserving peace? In Sisters in Peace, Kate Laing contends that this question has never been solely the concern of politicians and strategists. She maps successive generations of twentieth-century women who were eager to engage in political debate even though legislative and cultural barriers worked to exclude their voices. In 1915, during the First World War, the Women’s International Congress at The Hague was convened after alarmed and bereaved women from both sides of the conflict insisted that their opinions on war and the pathway to peace be heard. From this gathering emerged the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF), which...
Keeper of the Faith
Jim Cairns is a familiar sight around the markets of Melbourne, seated at a table stacked with copies of his latest book. It seems an unlikely occupation for a man who was once the driving force and major thinker in the Labor Party Left - a man who reached the positions of Deputy Prime Minister and Treasurer in Australia's most reformist government under Gough Whitlam. Keeper of the Faith reassesses the part Cairns played in shaping Australian public life. In tracing his ideological and political rivalry with Whitlam, it challenges the popular nostalgia that surrounds his former leader.
