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.

  • How Australia has been devistated since 1788!

    What Australia was like before colonisation by Europeans is clearly revealed. How this land has been changed since then is both shocking and revealing. This book shows that we must change our present land and water management practices that will leave us very soon with a devastated and unlivable continent. Our First Peoples can show us the way and us white fellas must work with them to secure the future survival of us all. Australia can be a much better place for life if we return to the original, well tried land & water management practices.
