Defiance: Bob Brown in conversation with Martin Flanagan

Join Petrarch's Bookshop at Launceston Library as we launch Defiance by Bob Brown in conversation with Martin Flanagan.

Stories of courage and conviction from the environmental frontline. Told with Brown's trademark warmth and humour, these stories will galvanise, uplift and inspire.

For half a century, Bob Brown has been standing up to the powerful interests who would put profit before planet.

In Defiance, he draws on this experience to inspire a new generation of individual and collective action. He reflects on the people and places that have shaped him, celebrates the irreplaceable beauty and value of nature and shares what motivates him to keep fighting. He considers the challenges facing nature's defenders - hostile corporate lobbyists, vilification in the press, the powerful pull of consumerism –and shows how courage, persistence and community can defeat them all.

Ticket provides general admission to the talk.

Book sales and drinks available at the event.
