The gap between the city and the bush in Australia has never been greater - and the bush has never had to work harder to meet the challenges of rapidly-changing society. This is a book about the never-say-die spirit of those who live in regional Australia: people and communities who see opportunity and the chance for renewal where others see dust. They're the people Tim Fischer knows best. In his 30 years as a politician, Tim has criss-crossed the country listening to the stories of rural Australians. Here, with Peter Rees, he shows that the "have a go" spirit of the bush means adapting to the challenges of the new century with canny thinking, hard work and a refusal to give up.
