In the far north of Australia, the oldest continent on Earth, lies the region that is home to one of the world's longest surviving cultures: Arnhem Land. The people, who have lived here for over 50,000 years, are members of more than 100 Aboriginal clans that comprise more than 60 language groups. "Aboriginal Australians: Spirit of Arnhem Land" is a perceptive insight into the the lives of the people of Arnhem Land striving to maintain their heritage and traditional life in a modern world. This unique and powerful photographic essay reveals the outstanding beauty of Arnhem Land and the richness of the Aboriginal culture. Penny Tweedie's relationship with the people of Arnhem Land extends over many years. In the late 1970s she lived with and photographed many Aboriginal families to produce her first book, which revealed the spirit of the people and their land. Now, almost twenty years on, Penny has recaptured that same spirit in photographs accompanied by the voices of the people themselves describing their customs and beliefs - providing a rare and privileged perspective of the country, culture and people of Arnhem Land. "Aboriginal Australians: Spirit of Arnhem Land" is not just a history of Arnhem Land. It also presents the inside story of the Arnhem Landers, who are intimately linked to their land. From the strength and importance of this connection arises the determination of Aboriginal people to preserve their traditions and land for future generations. This book celebrates their spirit and continuing culture.
