“The voices that speak to us from this remarkable book belong to ordinary Australians living in rural and remote areas.  They talk with wisdom and passion about the land – our land.  We would all do well to listen.
The storytellers are pastoralists and graziers, opal miners, environmentalists, former city people who now propagate indigenous plants, Aboriginal men and women.  The stories begin in the Kimberley in northern Western Australia and trace an imaginary line across the continent to Victoria’s Western District.”
