Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Ex library copy with all external stickers removed. Protective plastic covering. Partial date due slip on inside page, now covered with a blank ex libris bookplate sticker. Minor wear to book corners and edges.

Endurance presents stories of ordinary Australians grappling with extraordinary circumstances, providing insight into their lives, their experiences with drought and their perceptions of climate change.

The book opens with the physical impacts, science, politics and economics of drought and climate change in rural Australia. It then highlights the cultural and historical dimensions - taking us to the Mallee Victoria, where researcher Deb Anderson interviewed farm families from 2004 to 2007, as climate change awareness grew.

Each story is grouped into one of three themes: Survival, Uncertainty and Adaptation. Illustrated with beautiful colour photographs from Museum Victoria, Endurance will appeal to anyone interested in life stories, rural Australia and the environment. (publisher blurb)
