Great Australian Places by Graham Seal

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Front cover right tail corner now protected with book tape. Interior and binding are sill excellent.

Wherever you go in Australia, you'll stumble across traces of ancient settlements, remnants of exploration, yarns from the roaring days of gold and bushranging, unexplained events and a never-ending cast of eccentric characters.

Graham Seal takes us on a storytelling tour, from iconic destinations to tiny settlements, remote landmarks and little-known corners of this vast continent.

He discovers the true stories behind the immortal Aussie songs about the pub with no beer and the land where the crow flies backwards.

He visits sites precious to First Nations people and others precious to recent arrivals; he uncovers hair-raising stories in dangerous places; and he tracks down the elusive Everywhere Man.

He also investigates mysterious natural phenomena and unsolved crimes and takes us to locations of gruesome crimes and secret installations. (back cover)
