Publications

The Brisbane History Group has a consistent record in bringing to publication diligently researched historical material relevant to the Brisbane region. This provides the dedicated amateur and professional historian with an opportunity to publish their research findings and make these available to the wider community. A diverse range of topics has been covered over the years, broadly grouped by BHG as follows:

• Series 1 –  Historical Papers, the volumes in this series consist largely of presentations made at BHG seminars and other events
• Series 2 – Heritage Tours, these tour guides/maps were initially conducted as walk/drive tours by the BHG
• Series 3 – Historical Sources, include indexes, reprints and extracts from original publications
• Series 4 – Historical Facsimiles, copies of selected documents
• Series 5 – Historical Studies, publication of original research by individuals

Miscellaneous publications

Early volumes in the first three Series were A4 size with offset printed text and illustrations, bound in soft covers. More recent publications are in a customised format, indexed and liberally illustrated.
