The book contains detailed descriptions of the unique desert
environment with particular emphasis on vegetation and survival
strategies of plants. Nine expeditions through the Southwest of
Western Australia over a period of 15 years triggered the interest
of the authors to explore also some deserts in the region, which
leads to three further excursions into the sandy dunes of the
desert. Observations of plant life in the deserts focused not only
on identifying plants, but also on gaining some understanding of
the aboriginal desert people of centuries past, and their own
survival strategies in such extreme conditions. Also part of the
Canning Stock Route was followed and explored, but the most
rewarding and interesting finds were done criss-crossing the desert
away from highways, tracks, and paths. The most remote areas showed
species richness and surviving strategies which by far exceeded
expectations.
