Australia is the largest and most amazing island in the world - but climate change poses an existential threat

Australian-born journalist Wendy James returns to her homeland and looks at it anew. She travels to all seven states, discovering unique wildlife and natural wonders, and the extraordinary art and heritage of the country's Aboriginal population. But she does not shirk the problems that the 'lucky country' faces.
