Featured Book

The Victorian Bush - its 'original and natural' condition by Ron Hateley

What were Victoria’s forests and woodlands like before they were so radically disturbed by European settlement? Were they being managed by Aboriginal people, what was their structure and species composition, what natural phenomena may have been significant influences on them, how healthy were they, and how dynamic were they? A six-year examination of colonial documents has produced some surprising answers to these questions.

Circumspice '59: Another Title Relating to Victorian Land Management

'This is an excellent and entertaining book on life at the Victorian School of Forestry, Creswick some 55 years ago. Besides providing many insights into the forestry profession, it beautifully reflects youth in the late fifties and early sixties and gives an interesting account of the formative years of a group of students, who were themselves a cross-section of the community.'
- Rob Youl, Polybractea Press
