As we enter the new millennium, this timely anthology reflects various traditional aspects of the bush and its people, but it also looks ahead to more contemporary issues generated by the modern lifestyle. As Colin Munro states in the introduction: "This book is to take the bush ballad forward into the new century - to offer contemporary writers the opportunity to place their fingerprints on the end of the twentieth century and look into the twenty-first."
'A Thousand Campfires' encapsulates the spirit of the outback, and serves as a reminder of the important contribution bush poetry has made to Australia’s cultural heritage.
