From the dust jacket: "The Kimberley is one of the most remarkable yet least known parts of Australia. Occupying an immense area of the continent's north-west, it is remote, sparsely populated, and a marvel of natural diversity. As a region it stands apart. The great arc of ranges to the south and east effectively isolates the region from the rest of the mainland. The deeply indented coastline to the north, fortified by rugged cliffs and washed by monstrous tides, completes the Kimberley's natural borders Home to an extraordinary array of wildlife and vegetation, the Kimberley stands as one of the world's last great natural refuges. From its scorched desert fringes and vast eucalypt woodlands, to pockets of remnant rainforest and coastal mangrove communities patrolled by saltwater crocodiles, there is a variety of habitats with few equals." Bound in the original green boards, stamped in bright gold on the spine. Complete with dust jacket. 8.5" wide by 11.5" tall. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine condition/Near Fine dust jacket.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The story of Australia in the middle decades of the 20th century from 1930 to 1980 is one of dramatic contrast; of dark days and light of economic struggle, anxiety, war and sacrifice, giving way from the 1950s onwards to pros-perity, plenty and confidence. In Living Memory surveys these decades with a collection of fascinating and entertaining photographs of everyday Australian life. Author Alasdair McGregor places the images in their historical context with a thoughtful essay to introduce each of the four chapters the way we lived, the way we moved, the way we worked and the way we played. This warmly nostalgic collection will appeal to all ages. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Book
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Australias mountains may not stand as tall as the many mightier peaks stretched across other continents, but it is worth posing the inevitable rhetorical question: does size, as in height, really matter?The mountains of Australia can be measured by the yardstick of time rather than heightthe great sagas of the earth from its earliest days are inscribed for those who care to look closely. On the top of Mount Everest you can touch the edge of outer space but in the Australian mountains you can feel the beginning of time.True to the diversity of the Australian continent, our mountains are home to natural habitats of both exquisite beauty and astonishing variety as well as, sadly, rapidly increasing rarity. Our First Nations People have an enduring spiritual connection to many of these sites, and they have been a rich source of inspiration for many painters, poets, photographers and writers.Alasdair McGregor traces the rise and fall of the Australian continent, from mountains of ice and fire to those of iron and those with their heads in the clouds. An expansive contemplation of natural, geological and social history, McGregors account defies Australias reputation as the flattest continent on earth, illuminating the landscape in all its breathtaking height and glory. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover in Dustjacket. Condition: FINE!. AUSTRALIAN PHOTOGRAPHY Antarctica BiographyFrank Hurley was once a household name in Australia. Now most famous for his photographs of the Shackleton Endurance and Mawson Antarctic expeditions, he was also a visual chronicler of many of the major events of the 20th century and of a rapidly disappearing non-Western world. He was an official photographer in two world wars, a pioneering documentary-maker, participant in early feats of aviation, and cinematographer on major Australian feature films of the 1930s. At the height of his fame he even knocked on Hollywood's doors. In his later years, he traveled the length and breadth of his country to produce illustrated books eulogizing Australia and its people. Hurley was a man of ceaseless energy and unbounded enthusiasm for his craft who scorned authority and would stop at nothing to obtain what he deemed to be a "perfect" result. He was an enigmatic and sometimes contradictory characterâ "a loner who courted publicity, a curmudgeonly perfectionist, a pragmatic sentimentalist. He craved adventure, excitement, and accolades, often forsaking his family and business commitments to travel and work all over the globe. In this definitive, superbly illustrated biography, Alasdair McGregor vividly describes the character, achievements, and disappointments of a driven and remarkable Australian.First Edition. 460 p. : ill, maps, ports. ; 25 cm.
