THE Life Nature Library series has come up with the latest volume, titled The Land and Wild Life of Australasia, which is equal in its fine standard of production to the other volumes in the series.

Almost 200 pages of heavy paper reveal in four colours and black and white the natural wonders of Australia and New Zealand, and take some note of New Guinea. You won’t find anything about cities or towns in the book—the authors and the photographers concentrate on the wild life and on the terrain itself.

Principal author is David Bergamini, who wrote The Universe for the Life Nature Library and was a member of the staff that produced The World We Live In. His text is lively and full of interest. The book is well indexed, and first rate value for the money.—Sl.
