Susan Kurosawa - "The
Australian"
Zell says he was
inspired to produce this well orgainised companion to the
northwest of Western Australia after field guiding along the
Kimberley coast for various operators. Plants, animals,
habitats and geology are covered, but there are a swag of
touring tips, too. The maps are particularly good and Zell
shows off his considerable photographic skills to glossy
advantage.
