The Coast

Condition: BRAND NEW ISBN: 9780522882124 Author(s): Chris Hammer Format: Paperback Year: 2026 Publisher: Melbourne University Press Pages: 264

Description: The coast and its people help define our identity. Most Australians live in suburbia, but our hearts are elsewhere.From the winner of the ACT Book of the Year Award for his first book, The River, comes this celebration of the Australian seascape, from its natural grandeur to the quirky individualism of those who live beside it. The Coast is also the heartfelt and pertinent story of the issues facing our coast today and the resilience of communities at a turning point.Chris Hammer travels the length of the east coast of Australia on a journey of discovery and reflection, from the Torres Strait to Tasmania; from an island whose beach has been lost forever to the humbling optimism of the survivors of Cyclone Yasi; from the showy beaches of Sydney to a beautiful village that endures despite the loss of its fishing fleet.The Coast is a relevant, satisfying and highly readable book, imbued with a sense of optimism and humour. Even as new economic imperatives emerge and the shift in our climate becomes apparent, we can revel in the heritage and character of our shores, reminding us why the coast is so important to all of us. This updated edition features a new introduction from Chris Hammer.
