Added: Sep 8, 2026

Rees Campbell, author of the bestselling Eat MORE Wild Tasmanian, turns her attention to Tasmania's off-shore islands. There are some 6,500 islands, islets, rocks and reefs around the state, and this book visits 40 of them — from the largest, Flinders Island, to the remote and uninhabited Pedra Branca and Mewstone in the Southern Ocean, to some of the smallest and closest, like the Harbour Islets in the state's far North West.
