Mountain Stories: Echoes from the Tasmanian High Country, Vol 2

Before Simon Cubit passed away peacefully earlier this year, he was at work on this, his last publication, determined to make one more contribution to the Tasmanian high country.

Here we have the extraordinary result: a collection of nearly 50 never before published stories, illustrated with an extraordinary range of photographs, and a unique series of historical musings about people, places, huts and events of the Tasmanian high country.

Speakers at the launch will include:

• Chris Wisbey, ABC Hobart radio presenter
• Ian Hayes, Secretary of the Mountain Huts Preservation Society – Tasmania
• Nic Haygarth, Tasmanian historian and Simon’s collaborator on Historic Tasmanian Mountain Huts and Mountain Men
• Katie Tangney, Simon’s editor and niece

Join us for the launch of this remarkable book and a celebration of this fine author at Fullers Bookshop.

 Tickets are free but booking is essential as places may be limited.
