Paperback. Condition: Good. Berlitz Pocket Guide Sydney is the ultimate guide to this magnificent city. With 144 pages combining authoritative narrative detail and striking colour photography, the book contains two new features to entice visitors: a breakdown of Sydney's Top 10 Attractions and an itinerary for a Perfect Day in the city. An introduction to Sydney gives you background information on its people and outdoor lifestyle, followed by a brief history of Australia, including a quick-reference Historical Landmarks timeline. Throughout the guide, colour feature boxes brief you on points of historical and cultural interest. The main section of the book is the Where to Go chapter, which tells you everything you need to know about the city's many sights and attractions. Organised geographically, it begins in Sydney Harbour and covers each area of the city in turn, from Sydney Opera House on the western side of Circular Quay, through to Central Sydney, King Cross and Paddington in the Eastern Suburbs, and the hedonistic lifestyle on Sydney's glorious beaches. The chapter then covers the awe-inspiring Blue Mountains, where you can experience Australia's natural beauty, and the Hunter Valley wine region, before moving on to Australia's capital city, Canberra, just a short trip from Sydney. Throughout the chapter, number dots link the sights to the handy maps on the cover flaps. Next, the What to Do chapter is a snapshot of ways to spend your spare time, from scuba-diving and sailing through to spectator sports and live music, as well as nightlife and entertainment, shopping, and the best activities for children. There is also a Festival Calendar so you can check what's on while you're in the city. The Eating Out chapter covers the city's varied cuisine, describing what to eat, where to try it and what drinks are on offer. The chapter is followed by carefully chosen listings of the best Places to Eat in the city. The final sections of the guide are the A-Z Travel Tips - covering all the practical information you'll need, from budgeting to health to transport - and listings of Sydney's best hotels. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Beynon, Joe And Harris, Paul (photography); Sheil, Leonard (illustrations) (illustrator). The Spice Islands voyage is a trip among the Spice Islands of Indonesia on a traditional native sailing vessel and a quest to rediscover a remarkable Englishman who changed the way we see the natural world. Alfred Russel Wallace was the joint author of the theory of evolution by natural selection, yet his name has been overshadowed by that of Darwin. An intrepid naturalist, he wrote The Malay Archipelago, one of the first travel books. Tim Severin used the book as a guide, when in 1996 he retraced Wallace's path through the Spice Islands, travelling through uncharted waters, observing unusual flora and fauna, and ancient systems of tribal rule. His own account of this journey is offered here. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The London Stone at Staines marks the ancient western boundary of the jurisdiction of the City of London. The Lord Mayor and Corporations conservancy of the Thames extended east from there as far as Yantlet in Kent. This is the stretch of the river documented in 'Liquid History'. Drawing on the resources of English Heritages unrivalled photographic archives, the book records a journey along the length of the tidal river and over almost 150 years. We see the rural Thames as it approaches London, riverside towns, the civic and commercial development of the riverbanks, the working docks and warehouses, the development of the web of bridges that now links north and south, barges, sailing ships and warships, the great flood defences and a tiny beach that flourished briefly at the Tower of London. Featuring the work of pioneers of photography and some of the great topographical photographers of the 20th century, and with a fascinating commentary by Stephen Croad, 'Liquid History' chronicles the ebb and flow of the life of the river. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
