I came to the plateau in the winter of '98. A place a thousand metres in the air . . . a world of sandstone and eucalypt and undegenerate weather, a place just fallen from the sky . . . The Blue Plateau is a lyrical natural history of the Blue Mountains, and memoir of one man's attempt to belong there.An inspired meditation on the contours of the land and its people, of time and place and family, the rhythms of nature and the rhythms of friendship, It is a book of many belongings. Here you will meet the plateau's first people; you will meet Les and Henryk and Jim; you will walk the Kedumba and the Kanimbla in drought and fire and blood.Evocative and deeply moving, The Blue Plateau is a poet's story of an astonishing place and a loving portrait of home.

Von Händler/Antiquariat, Better World Books: Main.
Located in the Blue Mountains southwest of Sydney, the Blue Plateau is a contrary collection of canyons and creeks, cow paddocks and eucalyptus forests, the first people and ranchers. This book reveals the plateau through its inhabitants: the Gundungurra people who were there first and still remain; the Maxwell family, who tried, but failed, to tame the land; the affable, impoverished, often drunken ranchers and firefighters; and the author himself, a poet trying to insinuate his citified self into a rugged landscape defined by drought, fire, and scarcity. Like the works of Peter Mathiessen, Barry Lopez, and William Least Heat-Moon, The Blue Plateau is a deep examination of place that transcends genre, incorporating poetry, people’s history, ecology, mythology, and memoir to reveal how humanity and nature intertwine to create a home. Elegiac and intimately composed, this vivid portrait of a rugged wilds expands readers’ sense of the place they call home., Paperback, Ausgabe: 1, Label: Milkweed Editions, Milkweed Editions, Produktgruppe: Book, Publiziert: 2009-10-01, Studio: Milkweed Editions, Verkaufsrang: 2608909.
