Legends of the Red Heart: Twenty-Six Heroes of Inland Australia by Shirley Brown

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges, with front cover right tail corner, now protected with book tape. Interior and binding are still very good.

Alice Springs has a special place in the hearts of Australians. It is our most remote city, surrounded by the red sands of the central deserts and roaming camels. This is an account of some twenty-six characters that made Central Australia so unique. (Trove)
