Australian Flute Forum

Reading this book is designed to be similar to attending a seminar on flute teaching: the reader should go away with an impression of many different views and approaches to the subject, and hopefully be stimulated further. It contains a wealth of material of interest not just to flute teachers but also to students and performers on the flute and other instruments.

From Elizabeth, With Love

Not for public distribution.

From Elizabeth, With Love was published as a companion to the main volume of poetry, Falling Leaves. It contains a selection of poems written by Elizabeth Guy to mark milestones in the growth of her family.

Both volumes were published to mark the occasion of the fiftieth wedding anniversary of Elizabeth and Harold, August 28, 1998. From Elizabeth, With Love contains a new poem written especially for this occasion.

Falling Leaves

The poems in this collection range across the author’s life from childhood in a bush property in suburban Blackburn, Melbourne to retirement on the NSW south coast. The poems offer inspiration to readers from all walks of life with reflections on many of life’s great themes—faith, service, courage, war and peace.

The Anarchy of Water

The poems in this anthology represent a “search for belief through nature”. The poems are “accessible, original and readable.” Many of the poems have previously appeared in literary magazines in Germany, Ireland, the USA and Australia.

Foreign Postings

Lorna Bushnell worked as a secretary in the Department of External Affairs from 1960 to 1983 serving in various overseas postings. The letters that form the basis of this book describe in a lively and informal way the pleasures and challenges of her social and professional life in Cambodia, Nigeria, the Philippines, Jugoslavia, Indonesia, Ghana, Switzerland and Iran.

Reprinted with minor typographical changes, November 2000.

Southbound

In Southbound Joachim Matschoss writes with his “unique and distinctive voice about his search for language and identity, and for belief through nature.” He looks both to the past and the future through the eyes of an observer of the foreignness of a new country.

A Portrait of Ordinary People

This family history gives a most lively picture of a pioneering family in Melbourne, Trentham and Whitlands in the King Valley. Against a background of the potato famine and peasant conditions in Ireland, the struggles to establish a new life in Victoria are brought to life through the letters and records drawn upon on this book.

Fijian Diary

Although these diaries were never intended for publication, Leigh Cook believes that readers will enjoy his mother’s warm account of a way of life that has long since disappeared. The diaries, illustrated with contemporay photographs and postcards, tell a moving story and reveal much of the idealism, enthusiasm and conviction of missionaries and their families.
