The coast and its people help shape Australia’s identity. While most of us live in suburbia, our hearts remain by the sea. From ACT Book of the Year winner Chris Hammer, The Coast is a lyrical and timely journey along Australia’s eastern seaboard – from the Torres Strait to Tasmania – exploring its natural beauty, unique communities and the challenges they face. Blending travel, reflection and reportage, Hammer captures the resilience, humour and spirit of coastal life. With a new introduction, this updated edition celebrates the enduring significance of the Australian coast in a changing world.
