The Big Scrub Rainforest: A Journey through time

This years Byron Writers Festival saw the release of several interesting looking books and I was excited to be part of one of those books. I have written the chapter about the geological history of the Big Scrub for the book The Big Scrub Rainforest: A Journey Through Time. The quality of the publication is excellent with wonderful artwork and interesting articles. The natural history of the region is covered in detail as well as some of the indigenous and recent cultural history. Contributing authors range from me to Rob Kooyman (Ecologist), Bob Brown (Environmentalist) and many many others.

The book has been a labour of love for the editor Shannon Greenfields, The Big Scrub Landcare Group, Rous County Council, Brookfarm and many others.
