Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A riveting novel that tells the story of Sydney and the people who shaped its character, its skyline and its heart. In 1788, Thomas Kendall, a naïve nineteen-year-old sentenced to transportation for burglary, finds himself bound for Sydney Town and a new life in the wild and lawless land beneath the Southern Cross. Thomas fathers a dynasty that will last more than two hundred years. His descendants play their part in the forging of a nation, but greed and prejudice see an irreparable rift in the family which will echo through the generations. It is only at the dawn of the new Millennium - as an old journal lays bear a terrible secret - that the family can finally reclaim its honour... Beneath the Southern Cross is as much a story of a city as it is a family chronicle. Bringing history to life, Judy Nunn traces the fortunes of Kendall's descendants through good times and bad, wars and social revolutions to the present day, vividly drawing the events, characters and issues that have made the city of Sydney and the nation of Australia what they are today.

Book excerpt: Thrust into the Pacific cauldron during the dark days of 1942 as a young, raw second lieutenant, John Earl Edwards arrived as a boy, becoming a man on the long, bloody road to Tokyo. To Edwards, New Guinea, Saipan, Leyte, Luzon, and Okinawa were no mere place names on a map, but locations paid for in blood and sweat! In semi-documentary style, we follow Edwards as he plays the hand dealt him by fate, learning about love and survival in a world at war while the fate of the nations was still undecided. Edwards is determined the deadly, fanatical enemy lurking in the endless vermin-infested jungles would not keep him from returning to the arms of the young woman who taught him what love really was! Petite, blonde Susan was the beacon in Edward’s harbor, her kisses meaning more to him than medals! Facing a determined foe willing to die for their emperor, taking you with, just staying alive itself became a skill, one that could only be learned on the job!

Book excerpt: “THIS IS THE WORLD WAR II HISTORY OF AN ORGANIZATION CONSIDERED BY many as one of the unique and most colorful combat units ever to serve in the United States Army in time of war—the Americal Division. “Despite its early entry into combat on Guadalcanal in 1942, and its subsequent long period of service in the Pacific, the Americal, as a unit, cannot lay claim to having beaten the Japanese alone. Japan was beaten to her knees by the collective power of the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, The Air Forces, and our allies. The Americal Division was a significant member of this powerful team of armed might which successfully overcame aggression in the Pacific. “The story of the Americal is primarily that of the humble riflemen of the infantry regiments, without whom the Division’s combat record would not be what it is today. No mere words of praise or of appreciation for their daily sacrifices are sufficient to express the gratitude in the hearts of those who have seen them in action. “The story of the Americal is also that of the many men who worked with the riflemen or for them, directly or indirectly. Theirs were thankless tasks, performed under hardships of all kinds, but without these valuable men the regiments could not have operated efficiently for long. “This history of the Americal Division represents the fruits of more than two years of work among records of the Division. As a whole, covering the entire life of the Division, it is as complete as time and space will allow. As such, it should stand primarily as a record, and a symbol, of the sincere courage and devotion to duty of all who served in the Americal.”
