Loving country: a guide to sacred Australia. Brice Pascoe & Vicky Shukuroglou. 2020.

Readers are encouraged to discover sacred Australia by rediscovering the accepted history and hearing diverse stories of her Indigenous people. The intention of this book is to foster communication and understanding between all peoples and country, to encourage environmental and social change.

Co-authors Bruce Pascoe and Vicky Shukuroglou hopes that all communities will be heard when they tell their stories, and that these stories and the country from which they have grown will be honoured. Beautifully designed around Vicky’s incredible photos. Loving Country has been created in consultation with communities.

From the ingenious fish traps at Brewarrina and the rivers that feed the Great Barrier Reef, to the love stories of Wiluna and the whale story of Margaret River, there is so much to celebrate here.
