Synopsis
A general survey about the Hunter Region in New South Wales-its history, geography, industry and contemporary culture, Journeys: The making of the Hunter Region is the culmination of a major research project undertaken by the Disciplines of Geography and Environmental Science at the University of Newcastle. The publication presents the results of the most comprehensive assessment ever undertaken of the Hunter Region's natural and social environments and its economic condition. The research was funded through the generosity of a number of sponsors:..The Hunter Economic Development Council..The Newcastle and Hunter Business Chamber..The Newcastle Trades Hall..Prime Television..The University of Newcastle..The authors are academic researchers attached to the University of Newcastle. Maps and figures in the book have been expertly drawn by the University's cartographer, Olivier Rey Lescure...The editors are proud to present the results of the project to the wider regional and national communities. Readers will find the text accessible and fun, as well as informative and thought-provoking. Arguably, no other Australian region has experienced as much dramatic change in recent times as the Hunter. It is an important time for the region's leaders to take stock, evaluate and plan. The region's experience also provides rich insights for other regions in Australia and elsewhere. This book is a valuable contribution at a critical time.
