The sold-out book on the islands of the South Coast of NSW has supported NPA’s marine campaign and is now available again.
By author Helen Moody
One Sunday in 2018 a group of walkers from the National Parks Association Milton Branch stopped at the Wasp Head lookout in Murramarang National Park. Questions were asked about the two islands we could see – what they were called, who named them, why they were nature reserves. These questions had been raised each time we had walked here, so this time I decided to do a little bit of research to find some answers. Little did I know then that the ‘little bit of research’ would become a five year project – leading walks and paddles past 61 islands; writing and self-publishing a book about the islands; selling out the book in five weeks; and finding a publisher who is now marketing a second print run of the book.
