Sierra Publishing Australia began in March 2007 with the release of Nick Anchen's first publication, Puffing Billy - Spirit of the Dandenongs, a pictorial history covering all aspects of the world famous railway. The overwhelming response generated by this publication showed that historical books of this type were both worthwhile and necessary. The success of this venture resulted in a series of further publications. Sierra Publishing Australia is committed to producing high quality books on the unique history and visual delights of the Dandenongs and beyond. |

| Author/photographer Nick Anchen has a long connection with the Dandenongs. Growing up in the Melbourne suburb of Croydon with the blue Dandenongs looming large in the distance, Nick explored the region by bicycle and foot, and later by car, developing a fascination with the history of the Dandenongs and a deep appreciation of its beauty. The importance of recording our living history for posterity led Nick to write and publish his first book, Puffing Billy - Spirit of the Dandenongs in 2007. This was followed by several others, and Nick hopes to produce many more interesting and historic books in the years ahead. |
