Description
Trisha Dixon's superb celebration of Australia's most memorable gardens counterpoints photographs and illustrations with quotations from famous Australian writers. Following the theme of gardens created around rivers and waterways, Dixon journeys to many special places. The words of Miles Franklin, Hardy Wilson, Betty Casey Litchfield, Louisa Meredith and Sunday Reed are inspired by the gardens of Brindabella Station, Brownlow Hill, Coolringdon Station, Cambria, Wallcliffe House and Heide, among many others. While Bolaro Station in Adaminaby is immortalised with the last poem ever written by Banjo Paterson.
