Craig Collie Major Hashida's Notebook In January 1941, the dapper, slightly built Major Hashida arrived at Circular Quay carrying only a small suitcase. It was eleven months before Pearl Harbor and a year before the attack on Sydney Harbour. Japan was claiming to be neutral in the war. Believing there were no grounds to prevent Hashida from landing, the Army consulted its intelligence section, which proposed that he be 'closely shepherded' with a strict watch on his movements. He was met by Japanese businessmen and consular officials and made his way around the country, stopping at each major city and gathering pieces of intelligence on everything from Australia's fortifications to its car industry. But what was the true purpose of his mission? In Major Hashida's Notebook, acclaimed author Craig Collie has used Hashida's own diaries, along with military and police archives, to tell the long-buried story of one of the most intriguing espionageSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Katrina Kittel Long Journey Home - Book The perilous escapes of Anzac POWs from fascists in wartime Italy Captured at Alamein, used as forced labour on farms in northern Italy, thousands of Australian and New Zealand diggers escaped their captors when Italy signed an armistice in September 1943, including the author's father. Could they make it over the Alps to freedom in Switzerland before winter set in? After her father's death, Katrina Kittel opens his old Globite suitcase and finds tiny photos, postcards in beautiful handwriting from a mysterious Swiss woman, and memorabilia from his war. Katrina Kittel's father Colin Booth was captured during the disastrous July 1942 attempt to take Alamein's Ruin Ridge. He was among 80,000 Allied soldiers sent to camps in northern Italy as prisoners of war. They suffered hunger, illness and cruel punishments for petty offences, and they were used as forced labour on farms. When news arrived of the Italian armistice with the Allies in September 1943, POWs escaped the camps, scattering across the countryside. Col was among those who headed north, aiming for neutral Switzerland. Life in the camps had been challenging, but not nearly as nerve-racking as life on the run, as they dodged German soldiers, Royalist sympathisers and fascist loyalists, while scrounging for food and shelter, trying to reach the navigable mountain passes before winter set in. Kind Italians shared what they could, but for some impoverished mountain villagers, the 4000-lire German bounty for a captured POW was very tempting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr Anthony Clarke Ancient shipwreck cargo reveals surprising global trade secrets of the 1600s Using cargo recovered from one of Australia’s most infamous shipwrecks, new Curtin University-led research has revealed how surprisingly sophisticated global supply chains helped source and transport construction materials in the 17th century. The study analysed stone blocks, bricks and ballast from the Dutch East India Company ship Batavia, which wrecked off the coast of Western Australia in 1629, revealing the materials came from multiple quarry sources in Europe — not a single site as previously assumed.

Anthea Hodgson - Author *The Palace of Lost Virtue* In 1898, Marigold Harrington arrives on the goldfields of Western Australia with conviction in her heart. The daughter of a prospector and a proud member of the Christian Women’s Temperance Union, she dreams of rescuing women the gold rush has forgotten, those trapped in the shadows of brothels and bars. Across town, Pansy Arlington presides over the Palace of Pleasure, her own small empire built from ruin. When Marigold arrives at her door, offering God’s forgiveness, Pansy surprises her with unexpected kindness. The two women spark an unlikely friendship, but in a rough, lawless town built on greed and desire, their bond will be tested by betrayal, violence and a crime that will echo through the years. Inspired by true events and the real women of the gold rush, The Palace of Lost Virtue dares to rewrite history books, giving voice to the lives of the formidable women who lived and died in the goldfields. By the bestselling author of The War Nurses, this is a lively and colourful tale about loyalty, forgiveness and freedom. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Claes-Göran Wetterholm More than 114 years after the Titanic slipped beneath the North Atlantic, the world’s most famous shipwreck is still lying to us. The movies got it wrong, the textbooks glossed over it and the myths, from women and children first to third-class passengers being deliberately locked below deck, have become part of accepted history. Now, one of the world’s foremost Titanic historians is setting the record straight. Claes-Göran Wetterholm has spent decades studying the Titanic disaster. He has pored over survivor testimonies, maritime records, and artefacts that most people never see.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
