Tales from the Rainforest

This book examines the various rainforest pockets and gullies found on the Central Coast, NSW, and at the same time tells about the histories of the areas and what is left there to be found today from these past eras. It also introduces to the layperson what an Australian rainforest is, some of the flora and fauna to be found there and how it was used by the early Europeans, and, well before that, by the Aboriginal population. The book features many illustrations, photos and historic postcards, of which at least 300 are in full colour. Several maps are featured to aid the reader in going out and visiting the sites.
