History Writers Festival

In recent years, the local interest in history has grown enormously as has the number of titles being published. To coincide with the various anniversaries occurring in 2015, we are convening a History Writers’ Festival.

This festival will run on Saturday 18th April and Sunday 19th April, 2015 with sessions every two hours from 10.00am. Each session will feature an author and interviewer, and some will take the form of panel discussions.

The full program is posted here at www.historywritersfestival.com and tickets are on sale both in store and via our online store.

Mary Dalmau, festival convenor, remarks: “we have forged a strong name in the bookselling community of Australia for our extensive range of history, military history, and Australian history. We know there is great interest in these subject areas and believe we are well placed to convene a History Writers’ festival in 2015”

Over the last thirty years we have dedicated ourselves to offering unique events and festivals that engage all facets of the literary community. Each year we hold a calendar of such events including book launches, conversation evenings, interviews and presentations, culminating in our annual Crime and Justice Festival in November.

We are very pleased to add the History Writers’ Festival to our repertoire.
