About this listen

Delving deep into the Australian landscape and the environmental challenges we face, Fire Country is a powerful account from Indigenous land management expert Victor Steffensen on how the revival of cultural burning practices, and improved ‘reading’ of country, could help to restore our land.

Victor’s story is unassuming and honest, while demonstrating the incredibly sophisticated and complex cultural knowledge that has been passed down to him, which he wants to share with others. Fire Country is written in a way that reflects the nature of yarning, and while some of the knowledge shared in this book may not align with Western views, there is much evidence that, if adopted, it could greatly benefit all Australians.

CONTENT WARNING: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander listeners are advised that this audiobook may contain names of deceased persons.

Utmost respect for first Nations peoples around the world who have the solutions to so many of the problems that we face today. We need to listen to them and hold them and their immense knowledge close to all of our hearts. I felt a mixture of sadness for what we have lost, mixed with immense hope for the world, if only we would listen.
