About This Item
D & L Book Distributors, Australia, 1990. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. Signed by Author. Collenette has created an intelligent, well-told, and sometimes poetic history of Tasmania. His love for the place is palpable. From the Preface: "A pebble cast near the shore of the Southern Ocean, Tasmania seems to drop off the map of Australia and even off the globe itself. For Europeans it represents the literal end of the world: if you travel any further you are literally on your way home again. Because it is Austalia's smallest state in size, population, and in a number of other ways, it is often treated with condescension, and occasionally with actual amusement. Yet is is loved as fiercely as any place on earth, and far more than many...."
