2.The Last Explorer: Hubert Wilkins, Hero of the Great Age of Polar ExplorationThe Last Explorer: Hubert Wilkins, Hero of the Great Age of Polar Exploration
from Arcade Publishing
Price: $20.08

Customer Review:
Simon Nasht's book is like an icebreaker charting a course through the Antarctic and revealing one of its greatest explorers. It is hard to believe that one person so "aggressively modest" could have done so much with so little. Up until now, few had remembered him. What a pity. Thanks for bringing... more info

3.Nicky Barr, an Australian Air Ace: A Story of Courage and AdventureNicky Barr, an Australian Air Ace: A Story of Courage and Adventure
from Allen & Unwin
Price: $16.16

Customer Review:
Like the previous reviewer, I could hardly put this book down. It is an amazing story told in cinamgraphic detail. It would have been a good book written as fiction, but to know the stories are all true (I confirmed the outline with an RAAF offical obit) brings a part of WWII to life. Well done... more info

4.Mary Poppins, She Wrote: The Life of P. L. TraversMary Poppins, She Wrote: The Life of P. L. Travers
from Simon & Schuster
Price: $18.25

Customer Review:

Lawson provides some information on a fellow Australian, who despite protestations to the contrary, may have wanted someone to present a biography of her. Travers left notes and diaries but it appears to be information and not real knowledge. Her life was mirage, down to her name, national... more info

5.Sock It to Em, Baby: Forward Air Controller in VietnamSock It to 'Em, Baby: Forward Air Controller in Vietnam
from Allen & Unwin
Price: $14.93

Customer Review:
Excellent! An unvarnished account of precisely what it was like to be a forward air controller in Vietnam. The author pays tribute to, and included a photo of, (the late retired) Lt Col Richard F.

7.A Pound of Paper: Confessions of a Book AddictA Pound of Paper: Confessions of a Book Addict
from St. Martin's Griffin
Price: $11.66

Customer Review:
The book is a mixture of tidbits about famous collectors, the author's coming of age in Australia, obscure collectibles/authors, and whatever else came to the author's mind. Maybe a hardcore collector could keep up with this account.
I gave it up after 118 pages. I love books and was... more info

Customer Review:
The survival time of a new pilot flying for the British in April of 1917 was 17 1/2 hours. Stan Dallas flew in combat from the end of 1915 (there's come confusion about the exact date) to June 1, 1918 after having fifty victories, one of the highest scores on the allied side.
