About the Book

The Bush has always played a central role in Australian society and culture, but its history is not a simple one of hardy Anglo-Saxon pioneers, or ‘real’ Australians. It is a complex story of diverse people, places and activities. The Vision Splendid tells the often-volatile stories of land owners and itinerant workers, squatters and small farmers, men and women, Europeans and Aborigines.
