Item description from seller

Paperback. In the bestselling tradition of Peter Ackroyd's The Thames, a celebration of one of the worlds great waterways. Everyone knows Sydney Harbour. At least, we think we do. Everyone can see the harbour, whether we have ever been to Sydney or not. By as little as a word or two, the harbour floats into our minds eye. The Bridge. The Opera House. Fireworks on New Years Eve. When we see those images, we feel a sense of belonging. No matter who we are or where were from, we see the harbour and we feel good. In this beautiful, authoritative and meditative journey, Scott Bevan takes us from cove to cove, by kayak, yacht and barge to gather the harbours stories, past and present, from boat builders, ship captains and fishermen to artists, divers, historians and environmentalists, from signs of ancient life to the submarine invasion by the Japanese and the natural beauty that inspires people every day. This is the ultimate story of Sydney Harbour a citys heart and a country's soul.PRAISE FOR THE HARBOUR The finest harbour deserves the finest book A colourful, fascinating and enduring account of the greatest waterway in the hemisphere.
