.Where the Hell Is Tuvalu?: How I Became the Law Man of the World's Fourth Smallest Country
City Travel Guides > Books > Australia and New Zealand
by: Philip Ells

June 30, 2008
This book brought back some memories. I went through VSO screening to be one of two doctors for two years on Tuvalu in 1992. Unlike Philip Ells I chickened at the last moment and lost all the fun and challenges. Very enjoyable, amusing and informative read.

This book should be compulsory pre-deployment reading for all VSO and UNV Volunteers.

.Long Cloud Ride
City Travel Guides > Books > Australia and New Zealand
by: Josie Dew

February 07, 2008
I've bought all Josie Dew's books and enjoyed reading them very much, although in my view there was a little stutter in form on Saddled a Sea, her latest offering, Long Cloud Ride is right back up there with the others. This one was particularly interesting because my wife and I had visited New Zealand prior to our reading of the book. Josie Dew noticed the same things we did, although we were in a car and not on a bike. She was rude about a place we liked, but apart from that.......!
There are the usual quirky observations and interesting thoughts, I would query the cover comments "A cycling Adventure across New Zealand". Josie does far more than crosses these Islands, she explores them very thoroughly. I also question the TLS comment ... Read More:

.The Rough Guide to Sydney (Rough Guide Travel Guides)
City Travel Guides > Books > Australia and New Zealand
by: Margo Daly

June 29, 2006
I used the Rough Guide in 2004 in Sydney and I was not very impressed. The maps were dreadful and a lot of the information was out of date. I actually found that the free Sydney guide that you pick up at Kingston Airport far more useful. For other parts of the trip I used Lonely Planet Gudies which have a much better layout and cover to cover their subjet areas a lot better.
