Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geography of South Australia: Historical, Physical, Political Commercial The need of a book dealing with the geographical features of South Australia on broad lines has long been felt. It is hoped that the present work will in some measure supply such a desideratum. The aim of the writer has been to condense into a convenient form such information as may be found useful, not only to those engaged in teaching the subject, but also to a wider circle of general readers. Brevity has been observed throughout, but the principles involved have been brought into prominence, and these can be easily applied by the teacher in amplifying the subject according to local circumstances. In a school book it is sometimes difficult to present a subject clearly and intelligently without creating an overburden of details. Knowledge, to be useful, must include a certain amount of detail, but no more detail has been admitted than was felt necessary for the lucid presentation and exposition of the facts. The physical features of a country are determining factors in its history and possibilities. A large proportion of the work is devoted to this aspect of the subject, and it is hoped will be found of assistance to the teacher in the interpretation of the topographical features of his neighborhood. A river, cape, or mountain, means something more than a mere geographical expression. Each has a history and a destiny, and in the "Nature Study" of the present day it is necessary to find a reason for their existence and form. In this section of the book not only are the salient physical features of the country noted and described, but the "Reason Why" has been given. Much new matter, based on original observations, has been included. The attention of teachers is particularly called to our river systems and their geological history. Earth movements have occurred in South Australia of recent geological date that have produced modifications of surface features of great interest. Old river systems have been dismembered, or drained by the creation of new outlets, while others have undergone elevation and obtained a rejuvenescence of energy. Many localities, if looked for, will afford useful field lessons, in this way. In the description of certain topographical features it has been necessary to point out their geological significance. This has been done with as little use of scientific terms as possible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Story of Australia written by Louise C Johnson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Story of Australia provides a fresh, engaging and comprehensive introduction to Australia’s history and geography. An island continent with distinct physical features, Australia is home to the most enduring Indigenous cultures on the planet. In the late eighteenth century newcomers from distant worlds brought great change. Since that time, Australia has been shaped by many peoples with competing visions of what the future might hold. This new history of Australia integrates a rich body of scholarship from many disciplines, drawing upon maps, novels, poetry, art, music, diaries and letters, government and scientific reports, newspapers, architecture and the land itself, engaging with Australia in its historical, geographical, national and global contexts. It pays particular attention to women and Indigenous Australians, as well as exploring key themes including invasion/colonisation, land use, urbanisation, war, migration, suburbia and social movements for change. Elegantly written, readers will enjoy Australia’s story from its origins to the present as the nation seeks to resolve tensions between Indigenous dispossession, British tradition and multicultural diversity while finding its place in an Asian region and dealing with global challenges like climate change. It is an ideal text for students, academics and general readers with an interest in Australian history, geography, politics and culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly, Australia’s agriculturalists are looking to the nation’s north to escape the decline in southern Australia’s water and soil resources. Booming mineral and gas development is also helping to drive the nation’s economic success. At the same time, the south’s conservation sector would like to see much of the north preserved as iconic wilderness. Both conservation and resource development interests alike are often at odds with the interests of the north’s traditional owners, many of whom remain trapped in welfare dependency and poverty. Indeed, to the ire of north Australians, the past five decades of north Australian history have indeed been characterized by these national-scale conflicts being played out in regional and local communities. This book explores these conflicts as well as the many emerging opportunities facing the development of the north, suggesting that a strong cultural divide between northern and southern Australia exists; one that needs to be reconciled if the nation as a whole is to benefit from northern development. The author first explores where these historical conflicts could take us without a clear forward agenda. A story-based personal narrative from his long and diverse experience in the north gives life to these themes. Finally, the book then draws on these stories to help shape a cohesive agenda for the north’s future.
