Lighthouses of Australia
A Visitors Guide

by John Ibbotson provides information needed to visit over 150 of Australia's most scenic and historic lighthouses, both the easy ones and the difficult ones. It is a hard cover, A5, 264 page take-it-with-you book containing: Eight location maps, 180 brilliant colour photographs and a description of each lighthouse, a brief historical description, an ease of access rating, directions on how to visit them, the operators who will take you out to see them (some are off the beaten track and difficult to get too), the cost, the visiting hours and whether there is accommodation available in the keepers' cottages. There are also 100 different definitions of lighthouse terms and historical facts. The book can be used as a planning guide for visiting specific lighthouses or as a travelling companion so that you can check if there are any notable lights along the way.
