*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.
