- The aim of this anthology was (from the Introduction) 'reprints by Australian authors that were strongly Australian, particularly those that "felt" (in that very nebulous way) like alternative Australian folklore or mythology'
(compared to / like the Australian Aboriginal Dreaming)
- No printed price.
- Each story is followed by a brief "author's note", plus its publication history.
- Each story has one or more pieces of artwork. The artworks are "original and reprints" by the various artists. There isn't a list of who did which, although it's possible to infer 2 as being by Trudi Canavan from the information given (viz, probably the pieces above the starts of "The Claws of Native Ghosts" and "The Dark Under the Skin")
