Hardcover in Dustjacket. Zustand: Near Fine. AGRICULTUREThere has been nothing like it in living memory. Theories about cycles and seasons struggle to explain it. Early this century, as drought gripped the nation, a group of photographers crisscrossed the country, and captured a seismic shift in the way Australians were living their lives. Caught in these photographers' lenses were the faces and the stories of communities caught in this shift. People whose lives were being transformed as the rains over much of Australia's bread basket and beyond stopped falling regularly and the land altered in drastic ways. Beautifully Illustrated with Colour and Black & White Photographs. 216 pages With a Foreword by Don Watson and essays by Martin Flanagan, David Jones and Tim Lee, this collection of images from the Many Australian Photographers Group led by Andrew Chapman captures the impact of sustained drought on both the land and its people. vii, 216 p. : ill.
