A lengthy 1966 review condemns the Australian wine tome Wines of Australia for being disorganized and error prone. It cites misstatements on grape varieties, inconsistent style, typographical glitches, and limited vintages, while praising certain sections and recommending other guides for learners.
A reader of eight pre published papers on aboriginal and Pacific island peoples edited by Hoghin and Hiatt from Sydney's University presses a volume that lacks unity. It under serves undergraduates by narrowing scope to Australian groups, offering limited access to broader world societies and illustrating the gap between scholarly specialist work and liberal education.
Ombudsman to animals Gerald Darvel discusses zeal for wildlife, noting his single minded activism and humorous take on extinct and surviving species. The piece outlines his militant stance against neglect and his push for stronger conservation measures.
A list of pan books covers works by New Shoe Pamely Frankl Roe and Patrick Dennis, including The Wiltow Carin and Joyous Season. It notes Durrell's The Animals of the World and a Churchill platypus episode. The mix spans novels, card game guides, nature writing, and historical anecdotes with annotations on publication history and notable events.
A critique of Vincent Serventy and Andre Devaschpy's book Continent in Danger argues Australia faces mass wildlife loss due to human neglect. The reviewer notes Serventy's passionate conservation plea, his vivid naturalist accounts, and calls for stronger public education and professional training to protect species like koalas, kangaroos, and bandicoots.
Je Fonsok Collin reviews a Florence guide by Miss Borat, praising its scholarly yet imaginative view of the city. The piece notes the Arno flood history from 1333 to 1944, the Ponte alle Grazie and Ponte Vecchio, and highlights chapters detailing Medici, Spirito Santo, and Florentine art, culture, and history with restoration donations urged to the Alighieri Borato seat.
A fragmentary listing of books and notices shows new works including Half of the Apple Is Mine by Joyce Lubald and Crime and Detection by Julian Symons. It mentions Gerald Snodgrass and David Duncan and notes publications and scholarly works on foreign language press in Australia.
