Family History and Collective Bios

Home/Store/Subjects/Biography & Memoir/Family History and Collective Bios

Explore a wide range of Australian family history, genealogical, and family tree books. Many of us find our ancestry fascinating, as it personalizes history and helps us understand who we are today.

You will also discover numerous collective biographies that tell stories of people connected by a common theme. These can include local histories that highlight the lives of prominent citizens or focus on specific topics, such as memorable funeral stories, tales of stockmen and women, or notable outback personalities.

These books feature intriguing accounts of Australians who have faced hardship, isolation, and even war, yet have demonstrated remarkable resilience. If you're unable to find the book you're looking for, please contact us, and we would be happy to help you locate it.
