About the book

On Western Australia’s southern coast, Albany stands as the state’s oldest European settlement, founded in 1826, but its human history begins over 40,000 years ago with the Menang people of the Noongar nation.

Historian and heritage expert Malcolm Traill presents a compelling collection of stories and rare images, originally published in local outlets since 2017. Now brought together for the first time, these tales offer a vibrant portrait of Albany’s layered past – its people, its places, and the events that have shaped the region.

To mark Albany’s 2026 bicentenary of European settlement, South is both a celebration and a reflection – an invitation to rediscover the unique heritage of a town at the southern edge of a vast continent.
