Description: Journey into the heart of North Queensland with this richly layered exploration of the Cape River, a waterway shaped by ancient geology and the enduring presence of its First Peoples. Tracing the river's course through the gold rush era, pastoral expansion, and the ecological rhythms that define its catchment, this book reveals how one remote river has carried stories of transformation across generations. With chapters on hydrology, native flora and fauna, and the weathered towns and tracks that line its banks, it offers both natural history and human heritage in equal measure. A compelling companion for travellers, historians, and anyone drawn to Australia's lesser-known inland waterways.
