Description: Winding through the heart of South East Queensland, the Brisbane River has shaped one of Australia's most dynamic capitals — and this richly detailed guide traces its story from ancient Indigenous custodianship to a future Olympic stage. Journey through convict-era origins, colonial separation, devastating floods, and the post-war boom that transformed a sleepy town into a thriving metropolis. Along the way, discover how Expo 88 reinvented Brisbane's identity and how the countdown to the 2032 Games is reshaping its skyline once again. An essential companion for travellers, locals, and anyone curious about the making of the River City.
