“All Under Heaven” by Carolyn Phillips is a great book written in English. The book is divided by region (like the Southeast vs the River delta, etc) instead of provinces, but it covers what you’re looking for. I’m in the US so I’m not sure if you can order a physical copy in Australia for a good price but here’s the link for the Kindle version:
