“Explore Historic Australia is the perfect travelling companion.  From a weekend away to a lifetime of leisurely exploring, this book can help you see more, learn more and enjoy more of Australia’s rich heritage.
Colonial cottages, museums and galleries, the Georgian mansions of the Tasmanian countryside and the pioneering settlements of the desolate outback reveal the range and wealth of this country’s experience.
This book shows you how to get there – and what to see when you arrive.  Special ‘Look around’ features cover each capital city and some of the most historic towns in extra detail.  BP’s reliable road maps cover every part of the country.  And there are hundreds of colour photos to give a glimpse of what’s in store for the traveller.
All this plus a comprehensive index of properties and placenames, make Explore Historic Australia an indispensable reference – even if you never leave your armchair.”
