- As part of the ICEHO Global Conversations series, Associate Professor Ruth Morgan (ANU) spoke to two of Australia's foremost historians of rivers and floods. Dr Margaret Cook (USC) is the author of 'A River With a City Problem: A History of Brisbane Floods'. Emeritus Professor Grace Karskens (UNSW) is the author of 'People of the River: Lost Worlds of Early Australia'. In this conversation they reflect on the process of writing their books, the growing field of river history, and the importance of history for understanding and responding to floods in Australia.
This webinar was held on 31 May 2022 and was organised by the Australian National University's Centre for Environmental History and the International Consortium of Environmental History Organisations.
