‎London: G. Bell and Sons Ltd 1916. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. London G. Bell and Sons Ltd. 1916. Octavo iii-xx 364 last colophon pages. Full morocco ruled in blind on the sides with gilt lettering and blind-ruled raised bands on the spine; all edges gilt; leather a little rubbed and lightly marked; one opening partially discoloured by an acidic bookmark; basically an excellent copy in a contemporary deluxe binding. Emily Dorothea Pavy nee Proud 1885-1967 teacher sociologist and lawyer was awarded the first Catherine Helen Spence scholarship for sociology in 1912. 'She left next year for the London School of Economics where she investigated the industrial conditions of female factory workers DSc 1916. Her thesis was published as "Welfare Work" London 1916; the term described employers' initiatives to achieve harmonious relations with their workers by providing conditions and amenities which would both humanize the industrial environment and increase productivity. Proud's book examined the "betterment" of such conditions and welfare policies for women in British factories. Her research drew on her many factory visits across Britain and observations in Australasia; before leaving Adelaide she had gained first-hand experience as an unskilled factory-worker in New Zealand. She believed that welfare measures could enhance the "recognition of individuality" and the standard of living - it was neither demeaning charity nor the mechanistic efficiency disdained by some Australians. Marion Phillips considered that Proud took "the whole subject of welfare work out of the range of philanthropy into that of social economics". Prime Minister Lloyd George who contributed an enthusiastic preface to "Welfare Work" had established a welfare department at the Ministry of Munitions under the direction of B. Seebohm Rowntree whom Proud was appointed to assist in 1915-19. A "live wire" she proved accessible and unaffected in the position and organized factory inspections to ensure the health and output of women workers in a vital industry. In 1917 the British government appointed her CBE' 'Australian Dictionary of Biography'. This copy was recently purchased from the dispersal of the deceased estate of the author's son. G.

‎Bible Christian Methodists in South Australia 1850-1900. A Biography of Chapels and their People‎

‎Black Forest: Uniting Church SA Historical Society 2015. First Edition. Paperback. Fine. Black Forest Uniting Church SA Historical Society 2015. Thick quarto vi xi 641 pages with numerous illustrations several in colour. Laminated colour pictorial card covers; a fine copy. Inscribed 'What God hath Wrought! p. 602' dated 11 October 2015 and signed by the author. This remarkable story documented for the first time in detail from first-hand colonial reports captures the passion of ministers and lay people alike to build chapels and to establish a new world on Christian values. They left their homeland family and friends to venture into an arid frontier on the other side of the world. The Movement was born in controversy and its story still reaches out to challenge the status quo and mediocrity of our times. The book describes an impossible mission built on the pennies and prayers of the poor amid isolation sickness sacrifice exciting revivals and growth. It details the history and describes many small country chapels with numerous names of early settlers. Approximately 650 pages in length and generously illustrated it is a valuable reference for libraries and those interested in the story and drama of our non-conformist Christian heritage.

‎South Australia. Peculiar Land Order. Part 1. No. 84 a printed document with manuscript insertions issued to Captain Daniel Pring who 'played an indispensable part in protecting the Montreal frontier during the War of 1812'‎

‎Very Good. Folio 324 � 198 mm one leaf printed recto and verso the latter gives information on transferring the order: 'As the Land Order is issued in Duplicate both Copies marked Part 1 and Part 2 must be transferred'; blind-stamped seal at the foot of the document signed see below and dated 3 May 1838. Creased where folded with minimal wear in a few tiny spots; three short marginal splits neatly sealed; left-hand edge slightly chipped and a little unevenly trimmed; in very good condition. The land order issued in London states that 'Captain Daniel Pring of Guildford Street hath paid for One Section of Rural Land consisting of Eighty Acres and also for Ten other Acres of Town Land forming a portion of the 9000 Acres purchased by certain Directors of an Association for the purchase of one or more special survey or surveys of Land in South Australia'. The document is signed by two Colonization Commissioners for South Australia Josiah Roberts and Jacob Montefiore and the Secretary Rowland Hill. Sir Rowland Hill 1795-1879 British administrator educator and social reformer is perhaps best remembered for 'originating the basic concepts of the modern postal service including the invention of the postage stamp . but he also served from 1833 until 1839 as secretary of the South Australian Colonization Commission which worked successfully to establish a settlement without convicts at what is today Adelaide' Wikipedia. Daniel Pring 1788-1846 a British naval officer did not settle on the land in question nor did he emigrate. However his lengthy entry in the 'Canadian Dictionary of National Biography' indicates he played a significant role in Canada's history: 'Neither Pring nor his contemporaries were forthcoming about his private affairs. He spent his first years and his years on half pay at his home in Devon Ivedon Penn. When he died he left a considerable amount of land to his widow and other property to a close friend in Tavistock. There is no known portrait of Pring and no memorial. The fact remains that he played an indispensable part in protecting the Montreal frontier during the War of 1812'. unknown‎
