Seller's Description:
Near Fine in Fine jacket. 8vo. xxiii, 434pp, index, bibliography, notes, appendices, bw & col ills. Or pale green cloth in jacket. A few tiny, very faint spots to page edges, otherwise near new. The scarce first printing of Gammage's classic on pre-colonial Aboriginal peoples in Australia. Before the arrival of Europeans Aboriginal peoples managed the Australian land through and extraordinarily complex system using fire, water and the life cycles of native plants. With details of land management strategies from around Australia, this volume rewrites the history of the continent, with huge implications for today. Once Aboriginal people were no longer able to tend their country, it became overgrown and vulnerable to the hugely damaging bushfires we now experience. And what we think of as virgin bush in National Parks is nothing of the kind.
