“Heart of Country Australia opens up a world that is as familiar as the sight of red earth under blue sky, or lush green grass around a waterhole – a world that the inhabitants of the Big Country feel they share, but in which not everyone knows how to live.  These two fascinating books lead us to rich discoveries about the people of the outback and the bush, as four mesmerizing storytellers share their experiences of what it is really like to go droving, to carve a farm out of the wilderness, to keep a family together through flood, drought and heartbreak – and to know the true beauty of this awe-inspiring country.”
