'Chronicles of Coochiemudlo' was published nearly 30 years ago but it's still the most comprehensive anthology of thoughtful writing about our island.

It ranges from the scholarly to the entertaining. It's a reliable historic record, and the island's natural assets are expertly surveyed. But there are plenty of anecdotes and photos too.

It features many first-hand stories 

that give the modern reader an authentic impression of over a

century of continuous settlement.
