It was a hardback copy of “Endangered, Tasmanias Wild Places” which is both a great collection of stunning landscape and wilderness photography, combined with a bit of political rhetoric, about the ever-present logging debate that has been a major issue in Tasmania for as long as most people can remember.

The text is provided by Greens Senator Bob Brown, Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick and Dr Pete Hay, while the stunning imagery is provided by twenty, talented Australian wilderness photographers.

While I won’t go into my thoughts on the whole logging/ forestry issue, I do prefer to concentrate on the photographs for what they mean to me, which is some simply brilliant work. So if either landscape and wilderness photography, or the political issuses concerning Tasmanias forests take your fancy, I strongly suggest you have a read or browse of a great publication.
