Coast

This
the essential
'in-car' book for any road traveller in
Australia. With about one million kilometres of road, anyone
travelling them is, sadly, very likely to see or
cause roadkill - certainly of the millions of small
bugs that will be hit.
This
book provides an overview of the types of roadkill,
hints on what to do with them, how to clean bugs off
the car and an eclectic mix of other information -
from road safety to recipes.
In
addition the book gives an unusual insight into the
many aspects of Australia's very special fauna,
albeit in a somewhat macabre way.
More
than 200 photographs of roadkill all some
identification and an excellent guide on how to
avoid and observe roadkill and who to send
interesting specimens to.

Review
Recasting
the mould of the eco-tourism book in Australia, Len Zell
looks
about him and finds the world is absolutely fascinating,
then he tells
us about it with zest. He also gives us his own
photographs, colourful,
skilfully shot, and engrossing.
He zooms in and out, and not just with his camera. His
approach is
multi-dimensional and multi-disciplinary. His three
books, by now, on
both coastal and inland Australia, are written from an
informed blend of
geology, zoology, botany, marine and animal biology.
He waxes deeply about safety too, as his readers explore
Australia -
safety in tourism experiences, specific dangers to
avoid, ways to avoid
further harm to environment or animals. (He believes
people moving in
remote areas in 4WD should use the latest/best in
communication systems.)
And he cares passionately about care for the
environment, now and for
the future. Not just Zell, but his expertly-informed
associates in
museums, government departments, all committed to
expanding eco-tourism
opportunities in Australia. All this is why Zell is in
demand as a guest
speaker on cruise ships, as a consultant as
documentaries are made.
Zell already (October 2005) has three books
available, with more planned.
If you are travelling to the areas he writes about so
far
in most detail, Ningaloo Reef, the Kimberley Coast,
Shark Bay,
WA's Outback Pathways, Great Barrier Reef, and want to
extract
the best from your tourism, an investment in his books
will be repaid
with a heightened experience.
As well, the well-illustrated books are small enough to
fit neatly into
backpacks, glove boxes, any large pocket. Zell's books
are thoughtful
productions, a very tasty product from his own visits
(plural) to the
areas he's come to love.
Combine this with the astute use of helpful maps and
diagrams, including
satellite photographs, and a sense of humour of the
been-there, done-that
variety, and you'll soon see why the Zell recipe for the
eco-tourism
book is recasting the mould for the genre. This writer's
obvious zest is
downright infectious.
