Visit some of the most remote and beautiful places of south and west Australia in Green Nomads Wild Places, Bob Brown and partner Paul Thomas's three-month adventure across Australia.  This is a photographic and written record of a journey that took them first by yacht and then by road along the coasts and by-ways of southern Australia.
