Murray River: One River, Many Lands is the illustrated story of Australia's greatest river, showing landscapes and communities that have diversity, strength and beauty not seen anywhere else in the world.
It captures all the history and colour of Aboriginal culture, the Murray paddle steamers, bushrangers, homesteads, abundant wildlife, the Murray-Darling basin, classic Aussie pubs, sheep and wool, houseboating, the Snowy Mountain Scheme, Australia's wine garden and much more.
In the making of this book, Shane Strudwick spent six years photographing the region. The Murray River has been through significant drought and stress in recent times, and his photos show that there's a lot more to the river than meets the eye.
