This is a large almanac and directory covering Queensland, and is full of information for the family historian, social historian or general researchers of Queensland in this era.

The Almanac contains information on everything from events scheduled throughout the year, to gardening advice, a calendar, names and contacts for various government departments, banks, as well as postal rates and information, immigration details, railway stations and fares, details of stations and station owners and so much more ...

The Directory is just as useful, if not more, covering not only the city of Brisbane, its suburbs and  country towns. The services in each (even including various societies ... and their members) are detailed, as are occupations alphabetically together with the persons name, and address.

Fully searchable on CD-ROM, this is a valuable source of historical information which will be useful for all with an interest in Queenslands people, towns and society in 1890.

High quality scanned images of the whole of the original book. This CD has been bookmarked for easy navigation, and pages can be searched, browsed, enlarged and printed out if required.
