                                To mark the manufacture of the very last Australian
                                Holden’s in 2017, Joel Wakely gathered together dozens of
                                fascinating stories about many of the models Holden have
                                produced since 1948. Joel tells the whole story of Holden,
                                from the saddlery set up by J. A. Holden in the 1850s, to
                                Henry Holden’s car body-building of the 1910s, the sale of
                                the company to General Motors, the determination to
                                produce the all-Australian car, the on-track successes, and

                                vehicles. With contributions from dozens of Holden
                                enthusiasts about their myriad cars plus hundreds of
                                photographs, many never seen in print before, this is a
                                Holden book like no other, a book from the heart that goes
                                deep into the passion that Holden engenders.

                                very rare models. He knows Holden’s like he knows the
                                back of his hand, and he knows many other passionate
                                Holden lovers like himself. In 1958 Joel started his first
                                business venture: a new BP service station. It was here he
                                got involved in a Holden racing team. After working for
                                Bob Jane-T Mart for 7 years he started a 30-year career in
                                the car rental industry with Avis Rent-a-Car Australia and
                                later Dollar Rent-a-Car. After a short retirement, Joel’s
                                passion for cars led him to start another new business:
                                Avant-Garde Detailing, specialising in the restoration and
                                detailing of prestige and unique vehicles. Passion for

                              There’s no shortage of stories these days about the impact
                              humans have had on the planet. There’s plastic in our
                              oceans and rubbish in our streets. More and more animals
                              and plants are declared vulnerable, threatened or
                              endangered every year and extinctions are occurring at a
                              rate not experienced since the dinosaurs died off. If we act
                              now, we’ll be able to help species like the Sumatran tiger
                              and the giant panda in their fight for survival. In this book
                              you’ll learn about all the dangers facing these creatures,
                              including deforestation and climate change, and learn
                              what you can do to help change the situation for these
                              amazing animals and plants.

                                                             37,576 Australian aircrew graduated from the EATS. Over

                                                             amounted to just 6.7 per cent of Australian service

The Shepherd Moon is an independent publisher based in Sydney focused on classic texts with re-imagined timeless
designs. In an era of expanding electronic publications, our aim is to bring the book as an object of beauty and intellect
with high quality hardback designs and innovative covers.

Our first collection was published in 2017 and included twenty titles from the Western Literature canon, with works
ranging from Novels to Epics, Poetry and Philosophy. In 2018, we opened our online shop to further expand our
audience with targeted marketing campaigns on google and social media.

Our next collection is focused on Australian classic texts that form the foundation of the country’s literary canon. The
collection includes five titles that retrace Australia’s early history with themes ranging from mate ship, national identity
to migration and First Nations people. For our first printing run, we are planning a production of 5000 copies to be
distributed by Woodslane mid-2019 with future of developing the collection at year end with new titles by classic
Australian authors.

                             The Magic Ladder to Success
                             An Official Publication of the Napoleon Hill Foundation

                             By Hill Napoleon

                             The Magic Ladder to Success is Napoleon Hill's lost classic
                             and the book that preceded the all-time bestseller Think
                             and Grow Rich.

                             The original copy of this book has been appraised at over
                             $40,000.

                             Now you too can own this beautiful reproduction copy,
                             with the content reproduced from one of only a few
                             known original editions owned by the Napoleon Hill
                             Foundation.

                             The Magic Ladder to Success is the volume in which Hill
                             first distilled the seventeen factors that make up his "Law
                             of Success" philosophy, revealing how people can acquire
                             riches if they keenly desire them and put the necessary
                             actions in place using their intellect.

                             These key principles capture the ethics and actions that
                             empower all who harness them to become leaders in the
                             field of their choice. Leaders are not born, Hill argues;
                             "they are molded by a remarkably similar, simple, and
                             dynamic set of habits."

                             There is a treasure of knowledge unearthed in this book.
                             Hill offers a very concise, step-by-step pathway up the
                             ladder of success, an advancement dependent on the
                             organization of one's thought processes.

                             The Magic Ladder to Success is worth reading many times
                             and applying throughout one's life.

                             professional and financial success.

                             It is never too late to give your life meaningful direction.

                             Whether you are just starting out on your journey, are in
                             the thick of life's busyness, or are retired, you can-and
                             must-identify goals that will bring you fulfillment and
                             unfalteringly pursue them regardless of failure and
                             external situations.

                             In this volume, you'll discover, among other lessons:

                             * How to succeed in bad circumstances as well as good
                             ones;
                             * How to find opportunities where none seemingly are;
                             * How to set concrete, actionable goals--and actually
                             achieve them;
                             * The importance of integrity;
                             * The value of remaining open to new ideas, attitudes, and
                             routines;
                             * And the way to find true and lasting happiness.

                             Success awaits those who unlock the courage to truly live
                             the life they imagine.

                             Once you step out into a bold, positive course of action,

                             abundance.

                             Heed Nightingale's proven advice: "Decide now: What is it
                             you want? Plant your goal in your mind. It's the most
                             important decisions you'll ever make in your entire life."
