Books with an historical bent

Over the years of writing my family history blog I’ve commented on a number of books with historical themes. I thought I’d include the links here should anyone have an interest in this type of writing.

The Last Blue Sea (David Forrest)

Titanic Lives, (Richard Davenport-Hines) and Home with Alice (Steve Fallon)

The Tin Ticket (Deborah J Swiss)

Foreign Correspondence (Geraldine Brooks) and Why you are Australian (Nikki Gemmel)

A selection of history references including Oceans of Consolation (David Fitzpatrick) and The End of Hidden Ireland (Robert James Scally)

Farewell my children (Dr Richard Reid)

Insights into Australia: a book list (the comments are both pertinent and interesting)

St Mary’s: the Luckie Parish (John R Kane)
