AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'In Mallee Country, a formidable team of historians combines the methods and insights of their respective fields of expertise to craft a sophisticated and nuanced account of the continent's southern mallee lands and its peoples from deep time to the present. Their history maps the making of “mallee country” across semi-arid Western Australia, South Australia, and Victoria, a diverse region of mallee eucalypts transformed by dryland wheat farming. The name of this vast region derives from the Wemba Wemba people of northwestern Victoria, whose term “mali” described the multi-stemmed form of eucalypt that arises from a large lignotuber that sustains the tree during drought and fire.'
