Hi my name is Carol Paterson. I live in Port Macquarie. Although I haven't any resources for you I would like to talk to you about establishing a support network. If you could email me at cpa13148@bigpond.net.au I will get back to you. I am teaching extension for the first time and feeling out on my own.
Have you had a look at Naguib Kanawati's book? He is one of the world's foremost experts on this period... and is currently at Macquarie University so he's a very accessible 'resource'. ;) I'm afraid I cannot recall the name of his book now ('Conspiracies', or something like that) but I'm sure a few internet searches will glean some results.
