"Loving Country" By Bruce Pascoe, Vicky Shukuroglou
Loving Country is more than a travel guide—it’s an invitation to experience Australia through the voices and knowledge of her First Peoples. Written by Bruce Pascoe and Vicky Shukuroglou, and created in deep consultation with Elders and communities across the continent, this beautifully photographed book reveals a new way to connect with Country: to listen, to learn, and to fall in love with the land we call home.
Inside, you’ll journey to 18 remarkable places, from the ancient fish traps at Brewarrina to the vibrant rivers of the Great Barrier Reef, from the whale story of Margaret River to the love stories of Wiluna. Each place is brought to life through history, Dreaming stories, traditional practices and tours that highlight the importance of honouring, protecting, and recognising Country.
This book is for anyone seeking more than a quick trip—it’s for travellers, learners and dreamers wanting to deepen their understanding of Australia’s oldest living cultures. Loving Country offers a path towards respect, connection and shared care of the land. It’s a guide to walking thoughtfully, hearing Indigenous voices, and embracing the stories that have shaped this continent for tens of thousands of years.
