North Queensland Pamphlet Harshly Dubbed False Tourist Tale
The piece criticizes a recent North Queensland travel pamphlet titled The Wonderland of the North for exaggeration and misrepresentation. It mocks the glare of high color descriptions, notes misstatements about Cairns, Townsville, and Chinese presence, and urges readers to question its accuracy while praising local realities and Howard Smith's edition.
