First flights in South Australia's systematic beekeeping and honey harvesting Pt I
The author's interest in beekeeping arose from a research project commissioned in 2002 by the Apiary Industry Consultative Committee of PIRSA and the Kangaroo Island Beekeepers’ Association. This was to establish when and how the Ligurian bee was introduced to South Australia, thence to Kangaroo Island, and something of the breeding program of the government apiary formerly based on the Island at Flinders Chase. A closer look at the near outer-urban nature, rather than its rural operation, of much of South Australia's early beekeeping resulted in a paper, 'Bee breeding: Show and Tell in the City', which was presented at the 13th State History Conference of the History Trust of SA in May 2004, Adelaide. Further discoveries about the history of this essential part of South Australia's agricultural makeup are continuing.

Sketch notes on South Australia's Onkaparinga threshing roller, and some antecedents Part 1
South Australia's Onkaparinga threshing roller was the subject of a shorter and even more tentative paper given at a History Trust of South Australia (now History SA) State History Conference several years ago. This essay extends and illustrates that initial presentation.

The Historic South-West Corner of Adelaide
This booklet was the result of a short project, initiated by the Adelaide City Council, which aimed to produce a picture of the identity and nature of the community living south of Gouger Street and west of Whitmore Square, a residential and partly light-industrial area of the city that for some time held its own character to be highly distinctive and self-supportive. It was published as Bridget Jolly, Historic South West Corner Adelaide, 2nd edn rev., ed. Bernard O’Neil, Adelaide, Corporation of the City of Adelaide, 2005 (first published 2003), and appears here by permission of the City Council.
