In 1992 Steven Lang followed the route taken by the first official white men along the length of the Mary River. He travelled from its source near Maleny to where it reaches the sea, at Maryborough, making the journey alone and on foot ... In A Strong Brown God Lang marries his own story with that of the earlier men, both Aboriginal and White, weaving a picture of the Mary Valley as it was and as it is now, a very personal portrait that becomes a paean to the River and its importance.
