Hi.
If you want, Susan and Larry can save their money and I can get the
following books by William Stuart Long through Inter-Library Loan -- but
only three at a time, and none of them until the end of September. Can any
of you tell which are the ones from the series Cindy's writing about?
The Traitors
The Settlers
The Gold Seekers
The Explorers
The Exiles
The Colonists
The Traitors
The Adventurers

Thank you, Jean
Yes, that's what I as looking for; susan Lumpkin said Larry is willing to
scan the series if he can find the books cheaply enough; I'd love to proof
them. I don't remember who requested then. It was a long time ago, but they
sounded like very readable and enjoyable books and I think they'll be good
additions to the collection for thos who like historical fiction

I don't know if this is what you're thinking of but there's a series of 12
books by William Stuart Long (aka Vivian Stuart, V. A. Stuart) called "The
Australians." I haven't read them but the books begin in about the 18th
Century and ends in the 20th Century.

Does anyone remember the series or author of the series of historical
fiction about the country of Australia--not books set in Australia, like A
Town Called Alice,,but about the settling and various periods in the
history of the country? Someone had requested the books for the collection;
I can't scan and don't know if any of the series was scanned; I'd like to
get the books from the library to read--though if they aren't in the
collection and someone wants to scan them I'd love to proof them. I tried
searching the collection but not remembering any titles or the author, I
only came up with A Town called Alice when I put Australia n the search box.
And when I tried Amazon I only found straight history; the synopses of the
bocks made them sound very interesting. (
