MONARO COUNTRY - drawings of 41 buildings of significance by Bill Bresser with historical text from Trisha Dixon. Printed and publish by B J Publications, Canberra "PERKINS PAPERS" which were compiled by the local parliamentarian for Monaro - there are 3 volumes depending on the years you need, Perkins typed all the information gleaned from local newspapers journals etc whilst he was in Parliament, on parliamentary paper. Perkins Papers are on film and are available on inter-library loan. I believe there are hard copies at Sydney, Canberra, Tumut and Cooma Historical Society. This material is completely indexed. I have found it the best resource available for the Monaro. For more information go to http://www.sag.org.au/collections/perkins.htm Anyone have access?

Recollections of an Australian Squatter',
Brodribb, 1883
The whole book, 'Recollections of an Australian Squatter', written by Brodribb in 1883 and recounting his experiences from 1835, is a fascinating read and full of references to Monaro, William Bradley, and of course my Brodribb family. Anyone have access?
THE RYRIES: AN AUSTRALIAN PIONEER
FAMILY by JOHN EDWARDS
is at an advanced stage of preparation
and will be published in late 2006. About
80 illustrations including a dozen in colour. It will be a limited
edition and therefore subscribers are sought to raise the money
necessary for printing. I hope to keep the retail cost down to around
AUD30 plus postage & packing. If you are interested, please
email John Edwards at
norrongpress@ozemail.com.au
Once I have a firm idea of the costing of the book, I will contact you
and invite you to become a subscriber.
Dear Friends,
This is just to advise you that the
publication of my book on the Ryrie family may be delayed by a few
more weeks, partly due to my ill health and also because the Ryrie
family have requested some major changes, including the name (now
THE RYRIE FAMILY: AUSTRALIAN PIONEERS) and both cover designs!
However, rest assured that the book is otherwise nearly finished
and will come out soon.
It has also become obvious that my original idea of a pre-publication subscription scheme was too unwieldy and therefore it's better to just sell the books after they are printed. I will be in touch again as soon as this happens.
A copy of this email has been sent
to most people who have contacted me but could the lady who has a
daughter at Monash University please contact me again at
norrongpress@ozemail.com.au ? Unfortunately I lost all her
details in a computer crash some time ago. If anybody else feels
they may have been missed, please email me at that address.
In the meantime, thank you for your interest and support.
