Description: Journey from the alpine headwaters of the Australian High Country to the coastal plains as this richly detailed exploration traces one of the nation's most storied waterways. Weaving together the enduring folklore of Banjo Paterson's iconic ballad, the engineering ambitions of the Snowy Mountains Scheme, and the deep Indigenous relationships that predate them both, this book offers a multifaceted portrait of a river shaped by nature and human hands alike. Readers will discover the ecology of alpine catchments, seasonal rhythms, and practical guidance on where to experience the river firsthand. A thoughtful and timely tribute that also confronts the pressing conservation questions facing the Snowy today.
