Traveling through this stunning, dramatically changing, and always surprising, landscape, this guide looks at both monumental and the seemingly infinitesimal seasonal events--from the massive tides and cataclysmic cyclones to the flowering of plants and the impact of exotics on the environment. It includes fascinating information on local indigenous Kimberley food calendars, the role of fire, and the seasonal indicators in the night sky.
