Science & Nature History Australiana
Australia's Fossil Plants by Mary E White offers a concise, illustrated look at the ancient flora that once covered the Australian continent, blending botany and natural history for readers interested in the country’s geological past. The non‑fiction volume is a solid reference for both young adults and adult enthusiasts of environment, nature and Australian history.
Published in 1994, this hardcover edition captures the 1990s scholarly approach to paleobotany while remaining accessible and engaging. Its focus on shrubs, trees and other plant groups makes it a useful addition to any collection of Australian natural history or botany literature.
The book arrives in acceptable condition with a tight binding and no writing, dog‑ears or tears. The first six and last six pages show some foxing and yellowing, and a few rare interior pages have minor spotting, but overall it has been kept in a smoke‑free home.
