"Tasmania's old-growth forests, its wild, untamed rivers and its remote, rugged mountain peaks are etched in the minds of most Australians but these wilderness areas have been the focus of bitter conflict between government, big business and environmentalists for the past 30 years. Although told mostly from an environmentalist's point of view, this book is a factual record of events. Beginning in the 1970s with the flooding of Lake Pedder, it takes the reader through the heady days of the Franklin River blockade and the more recent battles for Tasmania's old-growth forests, culminating with the controversial proposal for the Gunns pulp mill in the Tamar Valley. Unfolding events reveal something of how politics is done in the island state and why a climate of suspicion and mistrust persists among the various interest groups. These battles also have had ramifications for the whole of Australia. They have played a defining part in the shaping of the Green party as well as The Wilderness Society and The Australian Conservation Foundation. Never before has Tasmania been examined through the prism of conflicting values over wilderness. This approach shows what influence this single issue has had upon Tasmania's recent history."--Provided by publisher.

On a winter's day in 1976, a band of young conservationists gathered at the foot of Tasmania's highlands to create a new organisation, the Tasmanian Wilderness Society. The ensuing battle to save the Franklin River from being dammed for hydroelectricity changed Australian constitutional history and established the new organisation's reputation for determination, grass-roots action and defiance. These qualities were taken to campaigns for wild nature right across Australia after the organisation changed its name to `The Wilderness Society' in 1983. The rewards have been new national parks and World Heritage Areas protecting some of Australia's most beautiful, biodiverse and majestic landscapes, including Kakadu, the Daintree rainforest, East Gippsland, the Kimberley, the Great Australian Bight and, of course, the wilderness of western Tasmania.This book is a celebration of those landscapes and the strenuous efforts made to protect them. Photographs by some of Australia's most celebrated wilderness photographers - including the late Peter Dombrovskis - are interspersed with tales of the vision and audacity exemplified by one of the nation's premier organisations. But the book is also a call to action. With the rapid onset of climate change, our natural environment faces the most serious threat in its history. The Wilderness Society hopes that the images and stories in this book will inspire its readers to help tackle this most important of all challenges faced by Australia today.
