The Death Of Holden
''The Death of Holden: The End of an Australian Dream'' is a 2016 book by Royce Kurmelovs. Background and synopsis ''The Death of Holden'' is an in-depth reportage into the closure of Australian manufacturing operations by Holden. ''The Death of Holden'' investigates how such a popular car, often considered a seminal Australian brand, could not sustain local manufacturing operations. It considers the broader future of manufacturing in Australia and the impact on workers and their communities. Reception In the '' Sydney Morning Herald'' Steven Carroll describes ''The Death of Holden'' as "a case study of modern economics in action." Patrick Mullins wrote in ''Books+Publishing'' that "Kurmelovs is at his best when he records the plaintive, angry, nostalgic and stoic workers he meets and interviews," but due to lack of access, "falters when he goes after the politicians and car companies."

Books About Australian History
A book is a medium for recording information in the form of writing or images, typically composed of many pages (made of papyrus, parchment, vellum, or paper) bound together and protected by a cover. The technical term for this physical arrangement is '' codex'' (plural, ''codices''). In the history of hand-held physical supports for extended written compositions or records, the codex replaces its predecessor, the scroll. A single sheet in a codex is a leaf and each side of a leaf is a page. As an intellectual object, a book is prototypically a composition of such great length that it takes a considerable investment of time to compose and still considered as an investment of time to read. In a restricted sense, a book is a self-sufficient section or part of a longer composition, a usage reflecting that, in antiquity, long works had to be written on several scrolls and each scroll had to be identified by the book it contained. Each part of Aristotle's ''Physics'' is called ...
