About This Item
South Yarra, Victoria: Lloyd O'Neil, 1983. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Large 8vo. 212 pages, indexed, illustrated. First published in 1978 by Richmond Press, this is a second revised edition. An immaculate copy which appears unread. "A Natural History of Queensland is the journal of a new breed of Australian explorers, bushmen-scientists working in the field, who introduce the reader to this land of contrasts as it was and as it is today; from the monotone red plains to the mulga to the technicolour world under the waters of the reef." "Produced to complement the ABC TV series Exploration North, the book is a fascinating record of exploration of the natural environment." CONTENTS: The explorers: from diaries to documentaries / H.J. Lavery The mulga: land of the Bulloo / M.J.S. Denny The bush: here, there and everywhere / G. Gordon The rainforest: where strange things live / J.W. Winter The swamps: a habitat in motion / J.G. Blackman The reef: uncertain land of plenty / C.J. Limpus The future: 'it is difficult for a white man to find his way in these pathless regions' / H.J. Lavery.
