It covers 56 species that inhabit the area as well as a further 24 species occurring in fringe riverine and woodland systems. The reader is able to identify species by means of a photograph supported by a distribution map, a diagnostic features key and descriptive species accounts. The book includes a discussion of venomous snakes, information on first aid for snakebites, and hints for snake prevention around the house.
What Happened to the Girl from the Mallee
What Happened to the Girl from the Mallee is the memoir of an only child who grew up on an isolated farm in the Mallee. Jenny Date gained her independence as a young teenager and set out to explore what challenges and opportunities the big smoke and the wider world had to offer. This memoir offers a glimpse of life in Australia from the 1950s to the present. Detailing events in the author’s life from international adventures to domestic service, from the vibrancy of youth to the complications of aging, and from nostalgia for the past to uncertainty regarding the future, the narrative is one of a life well lived and of concern and hope for the coming generations. She tells surprising, amazing, and amusing stories of more than seventy-five years of travel, career, and everyday life. This memoir is based within the context of the baby boomer generation and the broad social history of Australia.

The Death and Life of Mal Evans
Former Beatle roadie Mal Evans lies in a Los Angeles apartment in January 1976, dying of a gunshot wound. His life has spiraled downward since his beloved band broke up in 1970. And throughout those six years, as he fell further into despair, he has always asked himself: What if he could have done something to keep the Beatles, and his life, together? Instead of dying, Mal finds himself transported back to 1969. He has an opportunity to right the wrongs that ripped apart the world's greatest band. And while he succeeds in keeping the band together, helping to create new Beatles albums for the world to hear ("Imagine" and "Live and Let Die" are Beatles songs!), he finds that fate is plotting to reverse his world. Paul McCartney and John Lennon quarrel constantly; George Harrison is consumed by self-doubt; Ringo Starr has trouble living up to the Beatle name. And Mal, in the middle of it all, must work to keep the fantasy alive, trying to avoid the same mistakes he made the first time while avoiding the grasp of Death, which continues to pursue him in his new life.
