Reviews

Smith (How To Bounce Back Quick After Losing Your Job, NTC, 1993) weaves history, geology, zoology, and culture into a fascinating narrative to capture the beauty and mystery of this island archipelago. Indonesia is a destination not for the tourist but for the traveler. Smith covers the major destinations of Java, Bali, and Sumatra, as well as the less-traveled islands of Kalimantan, Nusa Tenggara, and Irian Jaya. She includes descriptions of dozens of treks for new and seasoned hikers and useful information on parks and reserves. Another excellent book from this series. Highly recommended for all travel sections.?Kevin M. Roddy, Univ. of Hawaii at Hilo Lib.
