Fighting Spirit: A tribute to the bushfire-affected communities of Australia's Black Summer

Fighting Spirit: A tribute to the bushfire-affected communities of Australia's Black Summer honours Australia's Black Summer of 2019-20, a time that will never be forgotten.

The tragedy of lost lives, homes, livelihoods, land, and wildlife, along with the subsequent rallying of courageous communities across the country, is captured in this unique photographic tribute to the fighting spirit of the people of Australia.

This book includes a foreword from Prime Minister Scott Morrison, an introduction by award-winning author Trent Dalton, community contributions, and two poems selected through a national competition for school children. It reflects the healing power of community, kindness, and hope.

"The book you hold in your hands is as much a meditation on the Black Summer fires as it is a permanent reminder of an inextinguishable fire that exists in the community-owned-and-operated spiritual heart of our nation" Trent Dalton
