He even fought out his differences with his wife in its pages by publishing their divorce proceedings. truth and later its stablemate the Daily Mirror made Ezra Norton one of the key media figures of his day. His notorious feud with Frank Packer led to a fist fight at Randwick racecourse. And his newspapers adopted and promoted his father's muckraking style to turn the Norton brand of tabloid journalism into an institution. Yet for someone who profited from others' scandals, Ezra Norton was an unusually private man. Sandra Hall's thoroughly researched and lively account of Ezra Norton's life gives a fascinating insight into this influential Australian figure.

This series presents abstracts of the earliest land records (the patents), grouping the information by owners. The level of detail included clearly separates this work from rent roll abstracts and land records. Patentees and others named in the patent document are identified and the relationship or involvement is defined. This includes relatives, former tract owners, persons transported and or completing service, surveyors, public officials, and occasionally employers. The abstracts identify neighbors and their tracts and, using data gleaned from other records such as probate, judicial proceedings, church and marriage records, they have identified and included many grants not included in the Rent Rolls. This work identifies virtually all of Kent County patentees, along with others who owned the land or warrant or acted as owner.
