Australia’s Beating Heart is celebration of our wide brown land, and the people and stories that landscape shapes. This luxe anthology features 70 iconic bush poems hand-selected by Australian champion bush poets Melanie Hall and Susan Carcary, including well-known works such as Waltzing Matilda by Banjo Paterson and My Country by Dorothea Mackellar as well as classic works by Will Ogilvia, Mary Durack, CJ Dennis and Duke Tritton. These Australian odes are illustrated beautifully by landscape photographs from the Australian Geographic image library.
