"Through the Valley is a journey through the Hunter -- through its history, its people, its geography and its beauty. The book gives insight into who we are, where we've come from and what we're passionate about." Philip Ashley-Brown, Radio 702 ABC.

Appealing to all age groups, are stories from the past and present, ranging from early colonial artists to the grounding of the Pasha Bulka.

Celebrated authors include Les Murray, Patrice Newell, Jean Kent, Julian Croft and Jan Dean.

Award-winning Herald journalist, Greg Ray, will launch Through the Valley at Newcastle Region Art Gallery. The function will commence at 5.30pm on Wednesday 7th November. Light refreshments will be served.

Please phone 4957 1466 or 4951 8859 to book by the deadline of Friday 19th October.

The book will sell for $30 but on the day of the launch there will be a special price of $25 for single copies. If you buy 5 or more copies they will be $20 each. Make payment by cash, cheque or money order, as they do not have credit card facilities.
