BOOKS FOR SALE

 

The following books written by well known author Stan Gervas will
be of interest to every lover of Perth and Western Australia
:

 

Five Graves in Dalwallinu - the story about a colossus of a man, Gus Leibe, who came to Australia in 1886 as a builder and left his mark with such buildings in Perth as His Majesties Theatre and the Peninsula Hotel in Maylands.  He later took to farming and changed farming operations in WA on a large scale.

 

 

Sunday Mornings in Perth - a delightful account of walking through Perth streets on a Sunday morning and describing the buildings and some of the history associated with them.

 

 

 

The Great Scam - Few people are familiar with the Braddon Clause but in the Federal Constitution of 1901, it was a clause designed to protect the smaller states who, at that time, had little political clout.

The Great Scam outlines how this clause has largely been ignored in regard to the treatment of Western Australia in particular by the political hierarchies in Canberra.
