The Anthology Of Colonial Australian Crime Fiction
From the editors of The Anthology of Colonial Australian Gothic Fiction comes this fascinating collection of disturbing mysteries and gruesome tales by authors such as Mary Fortune, James Skipp Borlase, Guy Boothby, Francis Adams, Ernest Favenc, 'Rolf Boldrewood' and Norman Lindsay, among many others. In the bush and the tropics, the goldfields and the city streets, colonial Australia is a troubling, bewildering place and almost impossible to regulate—even for the most vigilant detective. Ex-convicts, bushrangers, ruthless gold prospectors, impostors, thieves and murderers flow through the stories that make up this collection, challenging the nascent forces of colonial law and order. The landscape itself seems to stimulate criminal activity, where identities change at will and people suddenly disappear without a trace. The Anthology of Colonial Australian Crime Fiction is a remarkable anthology that taps into the fears and anxieties of colonial Australian life.

Portsmouth
Historical fiction comes to New England with the epic novel, "Portsmouth,” a classical saga reliving the story of a 1623 fictitious family and twelve successive generations that bring New England seacoast history to life. The opening scene begins with the Abenaki, the Native Indians, who inhabited the land for thousands of years until the English settlers arrived in 1623 when everything changed! "Portsmouth," the novel, marches through the city's history. Memorable characters interact with real-life personalities and historical events that shaped America. Relive our country's past and the colorful history of the New Hampshire seacoast through "Portsmouth.'' From the early Puritans to the Sons of Liberty and the Revolutionary War, up through the Great Depression and World War II, the novel brings American notables such as George Washington, Ona Judge Staines, Major General Fitz-John Porter, Frank Jones, and Celia Thaxter into the reader's imagination. The novel "Portsmouth" celebrates the 400th anniversary of the founding of this historic seaport, so reminiscent of colonial times.
Sudan
This Selected Issues paper examines the monetary policy framework in Sudan, and assesses the effectiveness of monetary transmission mechanism since the secession of South Sudan. The econometric analysis concludes that reserve money, the exchange rate, and private sector credit are the main determinants of inflation after the secession of South Sudan and that the transmission lags have been shortened significantly compared with previous studies. These findings reinforce the need for a comprehensive package of fiscal and monetary measures that strengthens the monetary policy framework and improves its effectiveness.
