A fold-out laminated field guide to the trees of Tasmania — printed life-size so you can compare leaves directly in the field. Covers the common native trees you're likely to encounter on Tasmanian bush tracks, including eucalypts, sassafras, myrtle beech, celery-top pine, King Billy pine, leatherwood and others.
Whatever our circumstances, life is a journey into meaning, a trek through the big picture. Many of the dominant ideas in our culture are dead-ends or detours on that voyage home. We can get lost in false notions of what science means, of what 'God' is and the burdens of individual destiny. In this book, Andrew Lohrey explores the contemporary nexus of philosophy, science and spirituality.
FIRST PUBLISHED: Sydney, Angus & Robertson, 1938. First edition.
Trout and Fly in Tasmania was Wigram's first book, and holds particular bibliographic standing: in his foreword, Charles Harrison recommended it as "a standard practical work on Tasmanian trout fishing," a status it held until superseded by David Scholes' Fly Fisher in Tasmania in 1961.
David Scholes's reflective account of a lifetime's fly-fishing — looking back over many years on the waters, the experiences and the conclusions he has drawn from a long career as Tasmania's most celebrated fishing writer.
A comprehensive guide to trout fishing in Tasmania from renowned angling author Greg French, packed with local know-how – covering all the best places to fish, services, maps of major lakes, and practical tips for anglers of every skill level.
Trouwerner is the Indigenous name for Tasmania itself — and this book is a yarn between three Tasmanians: Elder Aunty Patsy Cameron, the 28th Tasmanian Governor Kate Warner, and journalist Martin Flanagan. Aunty Patsy Cameron grew up on Flinders Island and traces her Aboriginal heritage through her mother's line to four ancestral grandmothers, and further back to the revered Pairrebeenne/Trawlwoolway clan leader Mannalargenna.
Neil Grose's collection of fishing yarns from his years as one of Tasmania's fly fishing guides and founder of Rainbow Lodge, Miena — stories rather than a how-to guide. Softcover, 2026, 185 pages.
