If We Should Ever Meet Again
Richard Trembath has led a life of many facets and has generally been regarded by those who know him as a most unlikely poet.Orphaned at 16 after growing up in the tiny town of Walwa, in the Upper Murray Valley, he spent most of his working life as a journalist specialising in horse racing, first with one of Melbourne's major newspaper companies, then the other.He combined this with his passion for the 'hands on' aspect of harness racing, breeding, training and driving horses in races for 35 years, during which time he won several of the sport's major events as well as numerous journalistic awards for literary excellence, photography and video documentaries.

Defending Country
The role of Aboriginal servicemen and women has only recently been brought to the forefront of conversation about Australia’s war history. This important book makes a key contribution to recording the role played by Indigenous Australians in our recent military history.

In earlier days, the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers were the main routes into the state's interior, as the swampy delta land had yet to be tamed. Antioch and nearby Pittsburg served as major depots for supplies to the Sierra gold fields, stockpiling lumber, produce, hay, dry goods, medicine, and fuel from the Stewartville, Empire, and Judsonville coal mines. Named in 1851 after the biblical city in Syria, this town served for many years as the Bay Area's easternmost outpost and provided its inhabitants with a bounty both man-made and natural.
