Black Saturday: Stories of Love, Loss and Courage from the Victorian Bushfires

The stories from the Victorian Bushfires‚ Australia′s greatest ever disaster‚ have touched many New Zealanders as well as our neighbours in Australia. Black Saturday is a book everyone touched by the tragedy, and moved to help the victims, will want to own.

Told as a collection of individual stories from the Victorian Bushfires‚ featuring deeply personal contributions from: people directly affected‚ their friends and relatives; the people who came to their aid − fire fighters‚ doctors‚ nurses and wildlife rescuers; accounts from journalists on the scene; and those involved in coordinating the response. 

Arranged town−by−town‚ with introductions detailing the scope and impact of the fires on each community; the book will feature the best photographs from News Ltd′s photographers‚ printed on stock‚ throughout each chapter. A roll of honour‚ listing those who perished in the fires‚ is included.

It tells of human emotion in the face of fire; the grief of loss and the triumph of the human spirit. A book to honour those who have lost their lives‚ and a show of solidarity to those who must pick up the pieces‚ and carry on in the aftermath of this disaster. This is a 100% charity project and $26.66 from each book ($30 minus GST) will be passed to the Victorian Bush Fire Appeal.
