AUTHOR AND PUBLISHER UNKNOWN. Children's book, title "Stranger than Fiction". A4 sized glossy bright red hardcover, published late 60's/early 70's probably as a cheap mass-produced run for Christmas. Was colour pictures accompanied by approx 1 page text per story. Theme: very mild mythology/occult-y for children/young people. Included story on the Minotaur, witches, possibly ghosts and dinosaurs also. Have searched the world for this book. Please contact Rosie at rosieaugust@gmail.com 9.09.

AUTHORS UNNAMED, EDITOR UNKNOWN: Dangerous Adventure (Australia, early 1960s). This was written by a group of Australian school students, who I think were not named individually in the book - I don't know if their schools were named or not. An editor was probably named, but I've forgotten his/her name. It was published in the first half of the 1960s - certainly before 1967. There were also quite a few full-page colour illustrations, I think also done by students. It was a hardcover book in fairly large format with about 100 pages or maybe a little more.If details of the plot would help anyone recognize this, it was a somewhat Blyton-style adventure, but set in the Australian bush, I think during a very hot summer holiday, and at one point a group of children were lost in an underground system of caves, and later on someone called Miss Fielding had an accident in a car which was found to have been sabotaged in an attempt to kill her. If anyone has a copy for sale, please e-mail Michael at mje@foxall.com.au I haven't seen or read this since I was at school in 1967, which is why I remember so little about it now. 108

AUTHOR UNKNOWN - Wanted Books on Chinese History. All considered. Contact wade_sharpley@hotmail.com 107

AUTHOR UNKNOWN......... I'm trying to find a horse/pony book I had as a kid back in the late 60's early 70's. I'm sure the copy I had was quite small, and square. Not the usual rectangular paperback size, although I may be thinking of the wrong book! It began with a girl and her family (brother, mum & dad) moving house to the country, and her being delighted that there was a stable, and she'd be able to have a pony! When it came to choosing a pony her brother was disgusted because rather than going for a well-schooled, posh horse, she bought one that was rather worse for wear. It became very ill & nearly died, but it eventually recovered, and she eventually went on to win or something at a horse show. Someone has suggested that the book I'm looking for is... Afraid to Ride, by Jane Eliot, but although the size of that book sounds right, the storyline doesn't! Please does anybody out there have any more ideas?!! chris.shaw@tesco.net 206

AUTHOR UNKNOWN: The Garfield Series published by Aldine; I am looking for any copies of "The Garfield Series" published by The Aldine Publishing Co.

NEWNES PRACTICAL Magazines - Many years ago I bought a huge cardboard box of magazines, most were Practical Engineering and edited by FJ Camm. Unfortunately the whole lot were stolen in 1999 and until tonight i had never found any reference to the practical series of magazines anywhere. Although I understand that today's Practical Classics magazine is a descendant so to speak. I also thought that FJ Camm was simply a name used by several different persons as a generic pen name. He must have been absolutely brilliant because of the breadth of engineering subjects covered and the enormous number of books and articles published. If anyone ever comes across any issues of Practical Engineer they may wish to sell, please contact me, Ron Bunting at briskiwi@bigpond.com.au 209

The TRIUMPH: In the 1930's I used to get the "Triumph" and have fond and close memories of a story by Jack Maxwell called "Geraldi Rebel of the Hills" which according to [Steve Holland's] information ran from 8 Sept until 10 Nov 1934. I would dearly love to have access to these stories even if simply to see if they had any formative role in my own politics - hardly possible as I was only 9 at the time - at least that is my excuse for seeking a pathway in nostalgia.
