Simpson In Asia
p. 93 · Read in the full issue
Received during the month, but too late for review, is Aus tralian writer Colin Simpson’s “Asia’s Bright Balconies”. (It will get full treatment in September).
As bright and glossy in appearance as its name suggests, it deals with Hongkong, Macao and the Philippines and is a companion volume to the same writer’s “The Country Upstairs”, which covered Japan.
Both books can be used either as travel guides by the many Australians who now travel to the Far East; or simply for fire side reading. (Published by Angus and Robert son Ltd., at 37/6.)
