Description: Australian Geographic Book of Gulf Country by Sue Neales & Murray Spence Paperback, 2001 Queensland and Northern Territory. A vast bite of land covering some 550,000 square kilometres, in two states, the Gulf country is one of Australia's most surprising regions. With its beaty, rare wildlife and rich history, the gulf Country has captured the imagination of restless drovers, diggers, drifters and dreamers since early European exploration. The millenniums before Europeans arrived, Aboriginal people lived here and roamed the far horizons. These ancient cultures continue through thriving communities in the region. Stretching from Mareeba in Queensland, inland from Cairns, to the Roper River on the edge of Arnhem Land, this is frontier territory - its remote flavour is one of its prime attraction. This beatifully presented, practical book will help you explore the Gulf Country's vastly different seasons, people, plants, animals and its hidden dangers. With more that 200 photographs, detailed regional maps and a bonus lift out poster map of the entire region, this book will be your guide to a fascination part of Australia.
