I guess it started with a 2009 email from the BBC. They were putting together a documentary on the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon mission called ‘One Small Step: The Australian Story’. It would focus on how important the Australian contribution was at places like Honeysuckle Creek. Stories like the ones captured in the movie The Dish.  |

Derryn Hinch isn’t the first, or the last, person to say ‘I’d die for a drink’. He almost did.
Hinch consumed alcohol for nearly half a century, before stopping in 2006. That’s because he got cirrhosis, septicaemia, his immune system collapsed, and his kidneys failed for 24 hours. He was close to dying. With the encouragement of medical specialists and his wife, Chanel, he stopped drinking. His second life began.

made him one of the most quoted personalities

only he can. As an adolescent becoming sexually

an entertaining dialogue, full of "hearty"
personal anecdotes. Derryn Hinch demonstrates
that it is possible to lose weight without total

a trencherman, a legend in his own lunch-time,

| Death in Paradise - $20.00 AUD + Postage |
 |
Once
it would have seemed preposterous that a movie
sex symbol could be targeted for death. Until
July 10, 1985 it would have seemed preposturous
that a peace ship would be destroyed in the harbour
of a friendly ally.....
The
sinking of the Rainbow Warrior provides the tragic
backdrop for Derryn Hinch's hard-hitting thriller,
Death in Paradise. It is a suspenseful, fast-moving
drama which weaves a tale of international intrigue
with one of environmental activism and personal
sacrifice.

| AIDS Most of the Questions. Some of the Answers - $10.00 AUD + Postage |
 |
Back in the 1970s and early 1980s the world was so ignorant of what caused AIDS that its first acronym was GRID. It stood for Gay Related Immune Deficiency. It started in Africa and in a new century is still decimating that continent. This book is the result of a three-and-a-half hour radio program devoted to the AIDS issue. And remember: The life you save through AIDS-awareness may be your own – or the life of someone you love.

| The Legend - $15.00 AUD + Postage |
|
Shortly
before he died one of Australia’s greatest
artists, Clifton Pugh, completed a favourite project.
He was captivated by the Outback – as his
last paintings showed. He was also fascinated
by the legend of Leda and the Swan. With writer
Pamela Blashki he adapted it to the Australian
Outback and transformed it into Leda and the Emu.
That
talented embrace of words and paintings led to
a book which I was proud to publish. It has a
foreword by Professor Manning Clark.
The
Legend also includes some rare and exclusive copies
of charcoal nude studies by Clifton Pugh.
