Australia Books

This is the only book needed when travelling around Europe.

With this book, art historian Bernard Smith established the model for all future considerations of the reception of the South Pacific by Europeans, as manifested in artistic impressions and interpretations of the early explorers and settlers of the region. In a way, you could say that Smith's ideas establish the discourse of 'postcolonialism' long before such a word was used. Essential reading for anyone interested in Pacific studies.

This is a very helpful book for anyone who takes seriously the reality of demonic forces in the world. It is devided into three parts 1. Satanic and Demonic Activities Examined (8 chapters on that) 2. The Sources and Effects of Satanic and Demonic Oppression (9 chapters on that) 3. The Process of Setting People Free and Maintaining Their Freedom (8 chapters on that)
This text should be read only by Christians who are devout and willing to be under the authority of Jesus Christ in all areas of life. Be warned: those who confront demons and are not right with Jesus Christ will be in grave danger. Read Acts 19:13-16

I purchased several copies of this booklet & handed them out to my kids' grandparents as well as teachers, therapists, babysitters, and other parents. This informative pamphlet sums up the basics about gifted children in a very readable format. I found it a useful tool in educating people about my children -- especially the people who don't want to be bothered reading a full-length book. I had such good responses to it (and so much interest) that I ordered a handful to make available through the Adult Education library at the co-operative preschool that my son attended...

My son loves all of the Magic School Bus books, I think he has read all of them now. Joanna Coles new Adventures with Ms. Frizzle series is also a big hit with him.

This book gives a good overview of what the Soviet space program learned about the inner planets. One table, showing the pressure and temperature readings of the Venus surface from all the Venera and Vega landers, plus the elevation of each landing site, is alone worth the price of the book. If you want to understand the inner planets of the Solar System, this book is a tremendous help. (Note that the author actually headed the programs in question!)

After 30,000 km of roads I can assure that this book is well made and will not fall apart in the heat and dust of Australia's outback! In addition it is a great route planning guide to both the well known as well as less well known trips around Australia's outback.

A charming book about Queensland. It presents 71 driving or ferry tours for 1 or 2 days. Each tour is described on two pages, together with a chart and about 4 wonderful pictures. The text is well balanced with the pictures, informative and concise. A really fine book to give you a first inspiring view of Queensland.

I loved this book and just HAD to order the rest of this series! Story is based on actual happenings according to the author. Gives great insight on the british rule over Australia, well done descriptions of happenings/locations. I highly recommend it!

I found this book very helpful in planning my Oz holiday. It provides useful recommendations on places and things to visit. The plentiful color pictures add much to the book's appeal.

While the book is good for planning your vacation, it does not provide detailed information on accommodation, transportation, or other essential information. Get another guidebook (such as The Rough Guide) to complement this book.
