*The Biggest Estate on Earth: How Aboriginal people made Australia* Bill Gammage 434pps, $40 Allen & Unwin, 2012 This is an extraordinary book that details how Australian Aboriginal people cared for the land, or as Bill Gammage calls it the "Biggest Estate on Earth". Gammage describes, with many examples, how Aboriginal people looked after the land. No corner was ignored, from deserts and rainforests to rocky outcrops, across the entire continent for at least 60,000 years until British colonisers began to destroy all this work after their arrival in 1788. https://www.greenleft.org.au/node/56093 -- "Disobedience, in the eyes of anyone who has read history, is humanity's original virtue.
