The Nokomis Group

The Nokomis Group is owned and operated by Noleen Glavish and commenced trading in 1990 as a specialist publisher of high quality natural history books, portfolios, prints, gift cards and original artworks by Australian natural history artists.

In mid 2018, we expanded to include a NEW BOOKS division in addition to those published by the Nokomis Group. We are primarily a mail order business selling natural history, indigenous, Australian and general Australian history books and we ship worldwide. Our stock holding is extremely substantial and if you click on the New Books tab above, you will see that we are offering a comprehensive range of natural history new books which is predominantly Australian but covers all parts of the globe.

Natural history subjects include birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, invertebrates, botany, gardening, ecology, insects, marine, biology, aviculture, entomology and conservation. We are constantly adding new titles and will be happy to source any titles which may interest you if they are not already listed.

Regular mailings (usually monthly as I don't like clogging inboxes with endless mailings) are sent to clients and if you wish to be on the list, please complete the subscribe form.

Wildflowers & Plants of Central Australia by Anne Urban is a portable, comprehensive guide to the region’s flora, featuring detailed descriptions and stunning photographs. The area covered is essentially all of the NT south of Barrow Creek. The book will also be useful in the arid regions of Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. First published in 1990, it was written during Anne’s outback travels with her photographer husband and botanist brother, offering a “plant walk” through central Australia’s diverse landscapes. This fully revised edition by Jenny Purdie, Barb Gilfedder, and Peter Jobson stays true to Anne’s vision of an accessible reference. All species names have been updated as far as possible in this revised edition

This book is a tribute to both nature and Anne’s legacy, and continues to inspire and educate.
