Few places in the world are as intriguing to naturalists or sports fanatics as northeast Australia. The Barrier Reef is probably its most familiar feature. Hinchman, an academic who is an avid hiker, rightly points out the forested treasures of northern New South Wales and Queensland, where many state and national parks are listed with the World Heritage program of the United Nations. The book is manifestly practical, with hike itineraries being its focus. Some 30 hikes are described, varying in length from 15 minutes to more than six hours. For each, details include potential camp sites, ease, and attractions. Recommended for outing collections.ADavid S. Azzolina, Univ. of Pennsylvania Libs.
