A work of Australian rural literature, This Is the Grass chronicles the early life of Alan Marshall, drawing on his deep connection to the land and the people of the Australian bush. With warmth and lyrical simplicity, it presents a vivid portrait of a childhood shaped by wide open paddocks, working horses, and the rhythms of country life. Marshall illustrates the bonds between humans and the natural world with an authenticity born of lived experience, capturing a way of life that was already beginning to fade. The prose carries a quiet, reflective tone that is both nostalgic and celebratory, honoring the grasslands and communities that formed the author's enduring sense of identity.
