The Rock

See all formats and editions

Uluru, or Ayre's Rock, is the centre, a sacred place.

Why is it such an icon? It is a special place above all to Aborigines and also to explorers, anthropologists, scientists, geologists and tourists from around the world.

This travel book and cultural guide takes the reader to Uluru through the landscape, the history of the Aborigines and explorers, and the literature of the centre.

It offers another experience of the rock for the traveller who wants to know and do more than just climb the rock.

The text is illustrated with maps and photographs, including the first photograph ever taken of the rock, never before published.
