Lonely Planet New South Wales & Sydney

This title offers expanded coverage of longer-term accommodation options including camping and caravanning. It has comprehensive information about Sydney, the Byron Bay coast, Broken Hill outback and even Canberra. It is fully revised by expert local authors who have been everywhere in person, via hiking boots, 4 Wheel Drives and skis! Local voices and perspectives give colour to the guide. There is lowdown on odd Australian events like Stroud's brick-throwing event and the goanna-pullers of Wooli.
