The Great Forest

The Rare Beauty of the Victorian Central Highlands

David Lindenmayer

Description

The Great Forest is a tribute to extraordinary landscapes now under severe threat from logging and wildfires, such as the catastrophic fire that struck on Black Saturday in 2009.

The author uncovers the intricate webs of life that make Mountain Ash forests so much more than their towering trees. He explores the unique forests that have sustained the Gunaikurnai, Taungurung and Wurundjeri peoples for tens of thousands of years, and that provide a home for creatures found almost nowhere else.

The exquisite photographs reveal the Central Highlands of Victoria to be one of Australia's largely undiscovered natural treasures.
