Edited by: George Farwell and Frank H. Johnston
Hardback. good condition. First edition (1949).
This Land of Ours... Australia, edited by George Farwell and Frank H. Johnston and first published in 1949 by Angus & Robertson, is a richly illustrated anthology that celebrates the vastness and complexity of the Australian continent. Spanning 216 pages, the book brings together essays, photographs, poetry, short stories, and historical commentary to evoke the country’s natural landscapes, regional industries, Indigenous and settler experiences, and emerging national identity in the post‑war era. With visual contributions from both editors and others, the volume blends literary reflection and on‑the‑ground reportage to render a vivid portrait of Australia’s land and people—a document of its time that aspires to define the nation in all its physical and cultural dimensions (amazon.com, nla.gov.au, collection.sl.nsw.gov.au, austlit.edu.au).
