These paybooks were carried by John Lachlan McIntyre while on active service during the First World War. The books cover the period November 1915 to July 1919. Every soldier carried a paybook, and made an entry each time they were paid. Paybooks enable researchers to track the dates and places that a soldier served. These paybooks are associated with JL McIntyre, a founding member of Lara RSL. The books are highly personal objects carried with him every day, and would have formed a key element of his wartime experience. They are also significant as research materials, allowing researchers to track McIntyre's war experience. 2 Small khaki paybooks. One is landscape with a rising sun badge and text on the front. The other is portrait with a cloth cover and text. Each book has tables inside tracking dates and locations of payments made to JL McIntyre while on service.

The Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri ( Book 2 Purgatory) Author: Dante Alighieri Translated by C E Norton Publisher: Macmillan And Co Date: 1891 fictionThe Divine Comedy is a 14th-century epic poem that serves as a profound allegory of the soul's journey toward God. It is divided into three parts (Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso). In book two, Purgatory follows Dante and his guide, the Roman poet Virgil, as they leave the horrors of Hell behind and climb Mount Purgatory. While Hell is structured as a funnel descending into the earth, Purgatory is a massive mountain in the Southern Hemisphere consisting of seven terraces, each representing one of the Seven Deadly Sins (Pride, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Avarice, Gluttony, and Lust).flagstaff hil, warrnambool, flagstaff hill maritime museum, maritime museum, shipwreck coast, flagstaff hill maritime village, great ocean road, book, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, the divine comedy of dante alighieri ( book 2 purgatory), dante alighieri, c e norton

Juvenal Author: Edward Walford, M.A. Editor:Rev. W. Lucas Collins Publisher: William Blackwood & Sons Date: 1872non-fictionThe subject book is a specific volume from a highly popular Victorian series called "Ancient Classics for English Readers." While Rev. W. Lucas Collins was the overarching editor of the entire 28-volume series (which explains why his name is prominently attached to it), the specific volume on Juvenal published in 1872 was actually written by a scholar named Edward Walford, M.A. The book is an introduction to Juvenal (Decimus Iunius Iuvenalis), a famous Roman poet active in the late 1st and early 2nd centuries AD. Juvenal is renowned for his Satires, which fiercely attacked the corruption, decadence, vice, and hypocrisy of Roman society under the Empire. In line with the rest of the series, this volume provides a translated, summarized, and curated overview of Juvenal's work. Because Juvenal's raw, unedited Latin can be incredibly explicit and vulgar, the Victorian authors heavily sanitized ("bowdlerized") the text, smoothing over the more scandalous elements to make his brilliant satire safe for a general English audience.flagstaff hil, warrnambool, flagstaff hill maritime museum, maritime museum, shipwreck coast, flagstaff hill maritime village, great ocean road, book, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, juvenal, lucas collins
