The God Clinic
Welcome to the God Clinic. And what is that? Well, in the course of this life, we all need to consult a specialist of one sort or another for what ails us. And while I am not denigrating these learned practitioners, I invite you to stroll through the next several hundred pages with me and visit God the Dietician, God the Accountant and God the Psychiatrist.
Trafalgar Captain
The Battle of Trafalgar was the most decisive sea-battle ever fought. The victory in 1805 had checked Napoleon’s lingering hopes for an invasion of Britain and smashed Spain’s status as a first-class naval power. It brought Britain a mastery of the seas that would last for the next 100 years.Philip Durham was one of the 27 sea captains at Trafalgar. Captain of the Defiance, a 74-gun warship, he narrowly avoided death during one of many furious actions at Trafalgar when a splintered shaft of wood nearly severed his leg. Despite his injuries, he fought on to capture a Spanish man-of-war and a French 74-gunwarship. This is the story of how Durham forced Nelson to allow him to take part in Trafalgar, and his dramatic experiences of the most epic of naval victories.
These Are the Names
Between 1788 and 1850, more than 1500 Jewish men and women were either transported to Australia as convicts or arrived as free settlers. This important biographical dictionary presents the details - occasionally sketchy but sometimes extensive - of more than 1500 of these pioneers. Rabbi John Levi's painstaking research through the fragmentary and often contradictory colonial records has culminated in an invaluable reference work and resource. A wealth of information, including birth names, extra names, nicknames, aliases and maiden names, together with details of marriages, children and occupations, makes These are the Names a major contribution to an important but little-recognised aspect of Australia's settlement history. For the first time, the earliest generation of Jews to settle in Australia is named and remembered.
