Description

A collection of beautiful and lyrical Australian writing about the bush. It includes some of our famous 'bush bards', such as Henry Lawson and Banjo Paterson, as well as some more modern writers, like Richard Flanagan and Robyn Davidson. Reading through this hugely comprehensive collection, you'll be able to smell the foliage and feel the crunch of sticks underfoot.
