This is a photographic exploration of the people, landscape and the way of life in the Gulf region of Australia. This book reveals the vastness of the landscape of the top north of Australia. The first settlers saw this land as one of the great contrasts, being either a swamp during the wet season or a hard-baked desert during the dry season. This book presents the area portrayed by Xavier Herbert in "Capricornia" up to the present day. Barry Slade won two awards in the 1990 Olympus International Photo Contest.
