Hardback. Barbara York Main, The Jacaranda Press. Condition remarks:Book: Good Jacket: Chipped and worn with some minor damagePages: Good , price clippedMarkings: No markingsA reflective work of Australian natural history and memoir, Twice Trodden Ground chronicles Barbara York Main's return to the landscapes of Western Australia that shaped her early career as a zoologist and naturalist.
