Allen & Unwin, Australia, Date: 2012. Softcover. Near Fine. AUSTRALIANA AUSTRALIAN FLORA FAUNA AGRICULTURE ABORIGINAL""Across Australia, early Europeans commented again and again that the land looked like a park. With extensive grassy patches and pathways, open woodlands and abundant wildlife, it evoked a country estate in England. Bill Gammage has discovered this was because Aboriginal people managed the land in a far more systematic and scientific fashion than we have ever realised. For over a decade he has examined written and visual records of the Australian landscape. He has uncovered an extraordinarily complex system of land management using fire, the life cycles of native plants, and the natural flow of water to ensure plentiful wildlife and plant foods throughout the year. We know Aboriginal people spent far less time and effort than Europeans in securing food and shelter ... . With details of land-management strategies from around Australia, The biggest estate on earth rewrites the history of this continent, with huge implications for us today.""Australia in 1788 Introduction - The Australian estate - 1.

Sydney, Crows Nest: Allen & Unwin, Date: 2012. P/b, reprint ed.. Paperback thick small quarto, very good condition, colour photos (some full-page, few black & white), top corners some pages lightly creased, corners four pages folded (bookmarks), minor edgewear. Heavy (1.1 Kg), and extra postage may be requested to destinations outside Australia. 434 pp. Bill Gammage has examined the written and visual records of the Australian landscape, and found a complex system of land management by Aborigines using fire, the life cycles of native plants, and the natural flow of water to ensure plenty of plant life and wildlife to last throughout the year. In this classic and fascinating book he discusses the ways the early settlers changed for the worse the way the Aboriginal people tended their land. Once Aboriginal people were no longer able to tend their country, it became overgrown and vulnerable to the hugely damaging bushfires we now experience. (Winner of nine literary awards.). 2012.
