Lake Eyre Slipcase
註釋Fully illustrated and beautifully produced, LAKE EYRE documents Paul Lockyers′ journey to Lake Eyre over the three years when it flooded -- previously a once-in-a-generation event. Paul tells the story of the region -- how it was a place feared by the local indigenous people, how early explorers trekked into its pitiless landscape hoping to discover an inland sea, and how it became a magnet for adventurers, pioneers, showmen and hardy types of all stripes. With hundreds of photographs of wildlife, events and of course the glorious landscape, this is a gift book with a satisfyingly big story at its centre.
