It is annoying to read inaccuracies and clangers about your own country, and it is pleasing to note that this guide avoids that. I have written in very glowing terms also about the Sydney guide. These are guidebooks I prefer to use in travelling my own country, which is a great recommendation.
Product Review
As the name implies, the Eyewitness travel guides bring you the world in full living color. In the Australia edition, each information-packed page is splashed with enticing photographs of the people, animals, plants, rock formations, deserts, and ocean vistas that make the country Down Under famous the world over. On the practical side, there are thousands of details to help you find your way to the must-see spots, plus full-color maps and useful at-a-glance tables that make it easy to sort through and locate food and accommodation choices.
The introduction offers an overview of Australia's world-heritage sites, aboriginal culture and art, artists and writers, wines, surfing and beach culture, climate, annual events, flora and fauna, landscape, as well as a detailed history section. --Kathryn True
