A compelling photographic document of 1970s Australia, capturing the lives and stories of "New Australians." Through the lens of photographer Georg Lindström, I'll Take Australia offers an evocative, intimate look at immigrants who made Australia their home during a period of significant social and cultural transition. The powerful imagery is accompanied by text from the esteemed writer David Martin, creating a narrative that explores themes of identity, belonging, and the multifaceted character of the Australian landscape and its people. The work is celebrated for its empathetic approach and the raw, observational quality of the photography. It serves as a vital historical record of the era's migration experience, presented with the high production values characteristic of Jacaranda Press titles from the late 1970s. For collectors of social history, photography, or post-war Australian studies, this volume remains a poignant and essential addition to the library.
