Between 1880 and 1930, a series of schemes brought thousands of settlers to Victoria’s Mallee region. At the same time, a number of railway lines were constructed through the area, with towns constructed approximately every 10 miles. Now, almost a century after the settlement schemes ended and the depop ulation of the Mallee began, a team of Australia’s best rural documentary photographers, along with writer Adam McNicol, who grew up in the Mallee town of Manangatang, retrace the railway lines to see what remains. The result is a stunning photo book, containing over 150 full colour images. 'The Mallee: A journey through north-west Victoria' is a portrait and celebration of the small communities that dot north- west Victoria and the people who call them home. The book, which has a foreword by 'Backroads' presenter Heather Ewart, captures life in the small towns of the Mallee and on the farms that surround them. One particular focus is the growing interest in the area from tourists, who in recent years have flocked to the Silo Art Trail and Lake Tyrrell, breathing new life into a region becoming famous for its brilliant sunsets and hospitable locals. ...Show more

Category: Australia

Through Hocking's easy to read narrative style, we learn of the rollicking days on the goldfields - from California to Australia. Each chapter tells a different story - bushrangers on the diffings, hordes of Chinese also seeking riches under the Southern Cross, to the women of the goldfields including t he notorious Lola Montez and her spider dance. There are times of unrest. The Great Meeting of Diggers, The Red Ribbon Rebellion and Eureka - the diggings saw the birth of the Australian character of mateship, hardship, seperation from loved ones, triumph over adversity, and for many, riches beyond their wildest dreams. Gold led to the economic boom times in Australia and saw Melbourne become the wealthiest city in the world. After his two earlier books on gold, this greatly expanded edition by Hocking, with its lively prose and over 300 illustrations provide us with a most outstanding and beautiful resource for anyone with an interest in early Australian history and the magic of gold. ...Show more

Accomplished author Bruce Pascoe provides compelling evidence from the diaries of early explorers that suggests that systems of food production and land management have been blatantly understated in modern retellings of early Aboriginal history, and that a new look at Australia's past is required. ...Show more
