Description: Where three rivers converge in the Northern Territory's Top End, the town of Katherine tells a story spanning tens of thousands of years. This richly detailed guide traces the region from its ancient Jawoyn, Dagoman and Wardaman heritage through European contact, the Overland Telegraph, wartime upheaval and the devastating 1998 flood, before turning to the natural wonders of Nitmiluk Gorge, hidden hot springs and limestone caves. Blending history, culture and landscape with practical travel information, it's an essential companion for anyone drawn to one of Australia's most remarkable frontier towns.
