About Boom Books – Australian Social History Books

This family-run business has been selling a Series of books on Australian Social History since 2007. The Series starts in 1939, and there is one Title per year until 1975. Thus there are 37 Titles in the Series.

The books were written by Ron Williams who studied the newspapers day-by-day for a particular year, and then condensed the information into a book for that year.

The books are all A5, black and white, with interesting colour covers. There are no charts or graphs or heavy debate. Just facts and opinions and lots of absurd and bold comments. Very nostalgic, a bit irreverent, for the older reader.

They make great gifts for CHRISTMAS, birthdays, Mothers Day, and the like.

They are reasonably priced, selling at a much lower price than other books of the same calibre.
