Title: Win a copy of The Wimmera – a journey through western Victoria bk - Limelight Post by: culturebird on Sunday 12 September 2021, 03:18:38 am Win a copy of The Wimmera – a journey through western Victoria
We are giving away one copy of the new hardback book from Ten Bag Press that celebrates the western region of Victoria. The creative team that brought you the best-selling book The Mallee has continued its travels through western Victoria, taking hundreds of images, meeting remarkable people and collecting their stories. These images and tales have now been turned turned into another stunning book, The Wimmera – a journey through western Victoria. The Wimmera is edged by the Mallee to the north, the Western District to South Australia and the goldfields to the east. To capture the essence of the region, award-winning photojournalists Noel Butcher, David Callow, Andrew Chapman, Melanie Faith Dove, Erin Jonasson and Jaime Murcia followed sections of a 1950s railway map, journeying along some lines that are still in use and others that have been closed for the best part of 40 years. They discovered a host of tiny towns and districts off the beaten track, some deserted, some with vibrant communities and some with surprising and quirky landmarks. This page-turner is published Ten Bag Press and readers will be taken on a journey to places like Apsley, Rupanyup, Watchem, Minyip and Jeparit. The book is a celebration of this picturesque outback region in Australia https://www.limelightmagazine.com.au/competitions/win-a-copy-of-the-wimmera-a-journey-through-western-victoria/ |
