Big pictures make this book easy to use........2004-03-27
I am a librarian who uses reference books everyday and I'm impressed with how user friendly this book is. The first 70 or so pages have nice big photographs of plants that are easy to identify. This pictorial guide will assist those with a limited knowledge of the flora to recognize some of the most common trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants in the Southwest.
Flipping thru the book I realized that the big 'juniper' in my Mom's front yard is really an Arizona cypress. The line drawings of the berries in the description section of the book convinced me beyond a shadow of a doubt I need to rename it. I had just taken someones word for it and now I checking the book and see I've been wrong for years.
The descriptions are rich with plant lore. The Arizona Cypress may live to be 700 years old and Native Americans used it to treat all skin fungus infections. These descriptions are obviously the result of a lifetime of studying and collecting information on these plants.
The book is a fine example of the great things that can be achieved by small regional presses these days. Anyone with an interest in native Southwest plants should make sure they have a copy on their shelf.

Australia's Largest City.......2007-08-02
The seventh edition of the Lonely Planet "Sydney - City Guide" was researched and written by Sandra Bao, with help from the author of the previous two editions Sally O'Brien. This edition was published in 2006, which means that the next edition will probably not be published until sometime in 2008 or later.
As with the other City Guides from Lonely Planet that I have used, this one appears to be comprehensive. As one would expect, it would cover the things that most travel guides cover, such as lodging, food & drink, entertainment & attractions, and shopping. The Lonely Planet guides go beyond the standard information and include sections on city life, art, architecture, and history, and sections which help the traveler plan activities with sections on walking tours, and excursions that can be taken outside of the city.
This guide, like the other Lonely Planet guides that I have used, has been very helpful in my planning for my visit. Probably the most useful section to a first time traveler is the `Directory' section, which covers a wide range of topics from transportation, family concerns, climate, customs, information for travelers which are disabled, electricity, embassies, emergencies, and so much more. If you already have a Lonely Planet guide for Australia, then this section will not be of as much use, but it is always good to have the latest copy you can because some of the information changes or is added.
I have had very good success with the Lonely Planet guides, and I have every reason to believe after reading and using this one for my planning that this one will also turn out to be quite useful. There are guides which give you more visual information on Sydney, but in terms of written content I believe this one is near the top of the list.
Book Description
This comprehensive guide will help you explore the vibrant city of Sydney, from the fabulous shopping on Oxford St. to walking in superb bushland in the Blue Mountains.
Features: 17 full-colour maps; detailed coverage of festivals in and around Sydney; extensive advice on the full range of accommodation and dining options; information on bus, train, monorail and ferry travel; and day excursions from the city.
Customer Reviews:
Confusing and boring at the same time!.......2005-04-27
The whole idea of a guide book is to "guide" you--to tell you how to do things, where to find things and how to get there. This book does none of these things!
Instead it is a pretentious and disorganized mess that leaves one with the feeling that, while the author obviously knows Sydney well, she is far too smug and self-congratulatory to share much of this information with you!
Yes there are maps--but they omit many street names and don't match up with each other. Good luck if the location you are looking for is on a street not deemed worthy of inclusion or if your path takes you from one neighborhood to another.
The book does provide spotty information on the city's transit systems (light rail, heavy rail, buses, mono-rail and ferries) but not enough to enable one to get around easily. Plan on spending extra time getting oriented and standing in line at information booths.
As far as culture, history, nature and local color--if it doesn't have to do with drag queen reviews, liberal politics or the hippest place to eat or drink, the author doesn't seem to be much interested.
Finally, the index-or should I say indexes as there are (strangely) several different ones! You'll probably just have to memorize page numbers as I did!
I spent four days in Sydney getting more and more frustrated with this book before I dumped it and started using "Sydney: The Official Guide" which is given out free by the local tourist authority. It was much more informative and much more user-friendly!
BTW--Lonely Planets has apparently decided to get rid of those sections of its city guides on getting there, transportation, local money, culture, customs, tips, etc., (which were always the most useful parts of the books) and has replaced these with expanded listings of recommended restaurants, bars and coffee shops. I did take a few of their recommendations in Sydney--and was uniformly disappointed.
One good thing about the book-if you are awake due to jet-lag, a few pages of the ponderous prose may help you nod off!
This was the 14th Lonely Planet Guide that I have purchased over the years--and the last. This is a once-great travel series that has completely lost its way. Too bad!
Lonely Planet falls flat on a great city.......2004-10-16
Having never been to Sydney before, we stopped into a Dymock's to pick up a copy of what we thought would be the premier guidebook for Sydney, boy were we wrong! Lonely Planet should do Australia right as they are located there, but they miss the boat in this edition.
The maps were the most useful part of this book.
The index was horrible. It is split up into 4 separate indexes - which if you miss the first page and the small type at the top telling you so, you can't find anything in the index. For example - looking for the zoo - not knowing the name of it - look under "zoo" - but nothing is there. Because there are 4 "z " entries in the book. Until you find the right page of "z" only to then have you see "Taranga Zoo".
More than this, It lacks detail on almost every area. Just one example, Jenolan Caves. It tells you guided tours exist bit nothing more about them. Like which one to see if you only can see one or two or mention that fact that there are many stairs in the caves, etc. etc. So many other places are covered in the same manner. In fact they even say in the book that they don't know if something is fun or not - example: Sydney Jet - we took this tour and one like it in New Zealand.... NZ was much better of course, but our son had not been. The author comment was, " who knows if you'll actually manage to see anything in all that excitement, but it sounds like fun. " Obviously, she has not done the tour.
If you don't know your way around the area, you will find yourself constantly flipping around the book looking for information.
This book gave very few insider tips or really any useful information on the many places to eat. Since most people stay around Darling Harbor - they only chose to put in 9 places in that area!
The photos were very hokey and the good ones were very small Black & White which never shows anything well. The rest of it looked like a marketing advertisement for Sydney Tourism.
On top of all this - it was incredibly out of date for a 2004 edition. Many places had closed or prices were dramatically higher than listed. We looked for a major department store listed in the book, only to find it had changed to a MYERS years and years ago! Come on, LP!
Basically, Lonely Planet has not changed their take on guidebooks over the years and this one does not do justice to a great city.
Go for it.......2002-02-16
Invaluable, this is the kind of book you'd want even if you lived in Sydney. It explains the different character of Sydney's neighborhoods and gives concise intelligent explanations of how Sydney has become the muti-faceted city it is. I've only been to Sydney twice, but with the help of this guide I'm beginning to get it. The maps are pretty good, but some lack detail. Hotel and restaurant sections are comprehensive, and in my experience extremely accurate.
Excellent overview of the beautiful city.......2001-01-09
This is an excellent guidebook for Yanks and others who want to learn more about the Harbour City. With 4 million people, Sydney is almost too big to cover in a single volume, but the editors of this fine book do their best. The descriptions of hotels and restaurants are usefully broken down by neighborhood - and Sydney is even more diverse than most cities; the reader who is planning a trip will want to decide where he or she is going to stay before making any other decisions. The maps are superb. The city has changed almost beyond recognition in recent years, and an up-to-date guidebook is a must for the serious traveller. Highly recommended.

Customer Reviews:
Unnecessary map for sydney?.......2007-02-09
This map is a fine map, but level of details is not better than the massive amount of free maps which is handed out at hotels in Sydney. My point is why pay for a map that you actually can get for free!
uniquely handy.......2006-04-20
I disagree with the previous reviewer. While you can certainly find all the maps provided in a tourist brochure or travel book, this brochure offers something they can't. This brochure is laminated. So, you can pull it out and toss it into your bag many times without damage. Additionally, this brochure is a nice size. Even when fully expanded it is still a manageable size. So, while you'll still look like a tourist staring at a map, you won't be a tourist with a large, unwieldy map or a big fat book.
I agree the price is a bit much. But, if you like the convenience of this format, the price tag may be worth it for you.
Disappointing.......2002-05-01
The content is not worth the price. You will get the same information from any tourist brochure for free.

Sydney swings along with a bold, brassy, hedonistic attitude to life. Swaggeringly beautiful, charmingly kooky and intensely idiosyncratic, this is a young city as golden as the sun that sets over the harbour bridge.

"Comprehensive" and feeling "Cool" to carry restaurant guide.......2000-06-14
Comprehensive, Good-looking and Feeling so "cool" to carry restaurant guide for Sydney (heavy-pocket) goers. I found this book after I came back from Australia. So it was quite a good memory for me, coz there is one of the restaurants I went to which listed here, and what is said in the book is just what I thought of that restaurant really is. For me, I rated the credibility for 8 out of 10, Practical (how useful of the book) I give 5, coz there are only the expensive restaurants listed, and we all know that there are loads of good food and cheap restaurants out there...so I would say ok, if you wanna go out once a while to dine in a fine restaurants. Presentation (how the book looks) I give 9.5 for the presentation: with the pocket size that you can bring along, the PVC cover that will make the book tougher coz we all know that this kind of book need to open quite a lot and the inside is so cool with the photos (you can't tell what they were taken anyway) good paper and very nice 10 points cover. I would say that overall compare to the other restaurant guide I have read...("Sagat's survey"---Bad. Presentation (which always stays in my passenger side's compartment) but excellence and trustworthy data...The "Tatler's"--- all commercials but really nice with 4 colors photos of the restaurant and mouth watering dishes) So "Out to Eat" is in between---- if you are looking for the restaurants quide, I would recommend this one but do not expect to pay less than 30 Aus$ for a meal.
