As someone who travels to Australia rather more often than is
proper for my carbon footprint, it was a delight to find the new
book coming in for review [...] this book is manna from heaven.
David Andrew is an accomplished author and experienced travel
guide, and the scope and coverage of this book shows his expertise
to good effect. It includes a state-by-state guide to sites to
visit [...] There is a decent sized colour plate section, and the
second half of the book provides a mammal-finding guide. Want to
see a Fat-tailed False Antechinus? This book will suggest where to
look. [...] My pre-trip browsing will be lavished on the excellent
printed edition."
British Ecological Society Bulletin, March 2016
"Australia has more endemic mammal species than any other country
on earth, from the strange duck-billed platypus and Tasmanian devil
to the iconic kangaroo and koala. This book covers them all and so
much more. [...] There are many books for birdwatchers in Australia
[...] but there are not so many for mammals, especially regional
guides, so this is a welcome addition to fill that gap. It is
certainly more than just a field guide."
