Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Pages have sunned. Some water staining near left spine at book back. Country is a panoramic book about a scientist and a continent. As he describes his own passionate encounters with the land and its people, Flannery pays particular attention… to the evolution of Australia's most distinctive animal, the kangaroo. He shows us how the destiny of this extraordinary creature is inseparable from the environment which created it. The kangaroo may seem as familiar to us as the eucalypt or the desert, a symbol on a road sign or the tail of a passenger plane, but readers of Country will never see our national emblem in the same way again. Tim Flannery's Country teaches us how this vast continent is not at all 'a ghastly blank', but a land of subtlety and complexity that becomes comprehensible to those who take the time to learn its hidden and ancient languages.
