'If you know Bruce Pascoe’s name it’s probably because of Dark Emu, his bestseller that exploded the myth that Australian civilisation began with the British. But Uncle Bruce was writing and publishing for decades before he turned our idea of Australian agriculture sideways. His new book, Salt, brings together the finest of his lifetime’s work. It contains 10 new short stories along with some previously published gems, and some of the best essays on Australia I ever hope to read.'  (Introduction)
