One of the earth's wildest regions, the Kimberley covers the vast northwest corner of Australia. It is a world of worn and colorful ranges, spectacular gorges, vast plains, strange trees, lush waterholes and great rivers that flow only for a few months of the year. Many people firmly believe the Kimberley to be the most exciting place in Australia. Indeed, those who know the area intimately may tell you that no other part of the continent can match its beauty and grandeur. Jocelyn Burt's striking photographs, coupled with stories of her travel experiences, evoke the atmosphere of a landscape whose scale and splendor has the power to enchant, humble and inspire those who enter it. The inclusion of lyrical poetry by Neroli Roberts adds a further dimension to the book.
