The NOVO Nostalgia Movie Quiz and Information Book

By: David Cameron Dunn, Ph.D.

The N*O*VO Nostalgia Movie Quiz and Information Book by David Cameron Dunn, Ph.D. The N*O*VO Nostalgia Movie Quiz and Information Book was written as a labor of love by a cinephile. Its intended audience is the kindred spirits out there who not only relish the “good, old films and players,” but who also enjoy being asked questions about them. The book goes a step further by quantifying the difficulty of the questions, providing the readers with the opportunity to record their “scores” and “batting averages.” Not only may the individual assess his or her personal expertise in the realm of motion picture lore, but also in the competitive way with family and friends as a game. In addition to the quiz section, which comprises the pronounced majority of the book, the readers will also find several interesting informational appendices. In view of the above, the reader will find this work to be set apart from the many other similar entries on the shelves!

The Tocal land and its people before and after 1822

By: David Brouwer,Brian Walsh,Jennifer Laffan,Cameron Archer

In 1822 a young James Webber, recently arrived in the Colony, took up his land grant on the Paterson River. In that one act of possession, the landscape, managed and maintained by Aboriginal people for many centuries, was changed forever. James and his convict crew carved out a European-style agricultural enterprise by exploiting the rich diversity of the land. In a nod to the earlier custodians, he named his estate ‘Tocal’, an aboriginal word for ‘plenty’. Through toil and enterprise, successive owners grew rich on the Tocal lands, until, in 1965, private ownership ceased, and a new agricultural college was born on the site. That college, now retaining the name given to the land by its original custodians, grew into a thriving educational centre, with tentacles of training reaching throughout the nation. 2022 marks a significant milestone in the history of the land. This brief overview of its story—including the millennia before dispossession—has been compiled by four authors with over 170 years of combined memories associated with Tocal College and recording its agriculture and its history. Over its history, Tocal has touched many families and many lives, and it continues to expand its reach, including to the descendants of its original peoples who cared for and respected its resources. This book in a small way pays homage to all of those lives.

Vietnam 1945

The Quest for Power

By: David G. Marr

1945: the most significant year in the modern history of Vietnam. One thousand years of dynastic politics and monarchist ideology came to an end. Eight decades of French rule lay shattered. Five years of Japanese military occupation ceased. Allied leaders determined that Chinese troops in the north of Indochina and British troops in the South would receive the Japanese surrender. Ho Chi Minh proclaimed the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, with himself as president. Drawing on extensive archival research, interviews, and an examination of published memoirs and documents, David G. Marr has written a richly detailed and descriptive analysis of this crucial moment in Vietnamese history. He shows how Vietnam became a vortex of intense international and domestic competition for power, and how actions in Washington and Paris, as well as Saigon, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh's mountain headquarters, interacted and clashed, often with surprising results. Marr's book probes the ways in which war and revolution sustain each other, tracing a process that will interest political scientists and sociologists as well as historians and Southeast Asia specialists.
