This is more than a guide book to Australia. It covers the history of the Australian continent. Your trip to Australia will be enhanced by understanding the implications of the British colonization on both the environment and the native population. It covers the development of Australia into a modern, multi-cultural nation. Coupled with a good modern guidebook, you will come away from Australia with a greater understanding of the culture of this vast land.
