Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.Sample Book Insights: #1 Australia is a difficult country to keep track of. We rarely pay attention to them, and this is strange considering they are a country that doesn’t misbehave and is peaceful and good.#2 Because we know so little about Australia, it is a country that is worth getting to know. It is the only country that began as a prison, and the only one that is also a continent.#3 Australia is a country full of strange and dangerous animals. It is the home of the Great Barrier Reef, and the largest monolith, Ayers Rock. It has more things that will kill you than anywhere else.#4 Australia is a country full of life that is difficult to believe exists in such an inhospitable environment. It is the driest, flattest, hottest, most desiccated, and climatically aggressive country. Yet it teems with life in numbers uncounted.
