Join us to hear Chris Hammer in conversation about his bestselling classic book, The River: A Journey through the Murray-Darling Basin
Join the bestselling author of Scrublands, now a series on Stan, Chris Hammer on a journey through Australia's largest river system, the Murray-Darling Basin. His travels during the crippling millennium drought take us through riverland communities, sharing the laughter, sadness and reflections of the people he meets along the way.
First published in 2010, The River continues to be read as a history, as a prophecy – and as both. This updated edition includes a new introduction from the author.
