This a a fantastic follow up to Dark Emu, surveying some sacred places of Australia. They talk about the land, the birds, animals, plants, with the original inhabitants relationships and inevitably the violent clash with the invaders. The very real “settlements’ that the indigenous people had are described as are the other tools and technology. However the sections that are most enthralling are the discussions of the continuing relationship of the people to their environment. Of course the details of the massacres are shocking and tragic. The resilience of the people are described with power. A very worthwhile book. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Loving Country is a powerful and essential guidebook that offers a new way to travel and discover Australia through an Indigenous narrative. In this beautifully designed and photographed edition, co-authors Bruce Pascoe and Vicky Shukuroglou show travellers how to see the country as herself, to know her whole and old story, and to find the way to fall in love with her, our home. Featuring 18 places in detail, from the ingenious fish traps at Brewarrina and the rivers that feed the Great Barrier Reef, to the love stories of Wiluna and the whale story of Margaret River, there is so much to celebrate. This immersive book covers history, Dreaming stories, traditional cultural practices, Indigenous tours and the importance of recognition and protection of place. It offers keys to unlock the heart of this loving country for those who want to enrich their understanding of our continent, and for travellers looking for more than a whistle-stop tour of Australia.
