Another generation joined secret societies to prevent the Communist takeover of the Australian Labor Party. Original Australian stories never told before.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Irish immigrants and their offspring were the largest group to populate Australia between 1788 and 1945, after settlers of English birth and descent. The Irish comprised nearly 25 per cent of all non-Indigenous Australians by the time of Federation in 1901. A New History of the Irish in Australia, as its title suggests, offers a new look at this major group of founding peoples. The book uses source materials not employed previously; it examines topics not studied in the past; it takes approaches not attempted before; and it draws upon the latest research published, not only in Australia, but overseas as well. The book does not aspire to be a general account, like the one Patrick O'Farrell published over 30 years ago. Instead, this new history is concerned with certain key themes and topics, some dealt with previously, but many not--or at least not dealt with in Australia before. Issues around race, gender, colonialism, popular culture, immigration restriction, eugenics, crime, mental health, employment discrimination, politics, war and religion are all interrogated. While taking a traditional national approach in focusing on the Irish in one country, the book also has a trans-national dimension in that it situates the Australian Irish experience in the much broader context of the worldwide Irish diaspora. By adopting this approach, the book reveals much about what Irish Australians shared with Irish communities elsewhere, but, in addition, it throws light on the ways in which the Irish-Australian experience was unique. In doing so, this book makes a significant contribution to the history of Australia, of Ireland and of the Irish diaspora.

Book excerpt: The Irish in Australia is highly readable and controversial account of the extraordinary influence of a network of Irish graduates on law, learning and politics in nineteenth-century Australia. The meticulously researched narrative weaves elegantly in and out of the established Australian colonial story, negotiating major events and characters, and arcane byways, with equal assurance. Jarlath Ronayne writes with an engaging irony and wit, and offers a radically different perspective on the inexhaustibly interesting subject -the Irish in Australia -and on the Australian story generally.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Its capital is named after German-born Queen Adelaide, its main street after her English husband, King William IV, so it is not surprising that little is known about South Australia's Irish background. However, the first European to discover Adelaide's River Torrens in 1836 was Cork-born and educated George Kingston, who was deputy surveyor to Colonel Light; the river was named in turn for Derryman Colonel Torrens, Chairman of the South Australian Colonisation Commission. Adelaide's first judge and first police commissioner were immigrants from Kerry and Limerick. Irish South Australia charts Irish settlement from as far north as Pekina, to the state's south-east and Mount Gambier. It follows the diverse fortunes of the Irish-born elite such as George Kingston and Charles Harvey Bagot, as well as doctors, farmers, lawyers, orphans, parliamentarians, pastoralists and publicans who made South Australia their home, with various shades of political and religious beliefs: Anglicans, Catholics, Dissenters, Federationalists, Freemasons, Home Rulers, nationalists, and Orangemen. Irish markers can be found in South Australian archaeology, architecture, geography and history. Some of these are visible in the hundreds of Irish place names that dot the South Australian landscape, such as Clare, Donnybrook, Dublin, Kilkenny, Navan, Rostrevor, Tipperary, and Tralee (as Tarlee). The book's editors are twentieth-century Irish immigrants from Dublin (Dymphna Lonergan), Portadown (Fidelma Breen), Trim (Susan Arthure), and by descent from eight Irish-born (Stephanie James).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who were the Irish in Australia? Where did they come from? How did they fare in Australia and how did their experience differ from those of other emigrant groups, if at all? Does ethnicity matter or does the migrant army transcend nationality? These and other questions are addressed by a distinguished group of international scholars in this collection of essays which represents major contribution to our understanding of Irish and Australian history. By investigating the Irish origins and Australian outcomes of Irish emigration to the antipodes since the departure of the first Irish convict ship from Cork in 1791, this book vividly illustrates the way in which emigration responded to circumstances at both ends of the emigrant chain. It also demonstrates more clearly than before the heterogeneity of Irish emigration and the diversity of the emigrant experience.

Book excerpt: Irish Settlers in South Australia is the story of two families: the O'Toole family from County Wicklow and the Hayes family from County Galway. The O'Tooles arrived in South Australia in 1840 and the Hayes family in 1849. In the first decades after their arrival they struggled as poor farmers on small 80-acre blocks of land in the districts north of Adelaide. When, in 1869, it became possible to buy land on credit, they joined the migration of settlers into the Mid North. From their origins as impoverished tenant farmers in Ireland, they became respectable landowners in South Australia.Using a diverse range of sources, the author documents her ancestors' hitherto untold story. The sheer sweep of their lives as they endured hardship and misfortune to create a better life for themselves and their descendants is a story worth telling. This book is more than a family history however, for the story of the Hayes and O'Toole families is part of the larger history of South Australia in the nineteenth century.

Book excerpt: The people of Australia and Ireland have much in common based on genealogy and a shared heritage. The connections forged between Anzacs and the Irish in World War I have been little known until now. Jeff Kildea tells the story of Australian and Irish soldiers who fought alongside each other at Gallipoli, in France and Belgium and in Palestine. But it was in Ireland itself that Australian soldiers forged their relationships with the Irish people, as tourists, as countrymen returning home and in some cases becoming involved in the Easter Rising of 1916.
