Adventure Travel Australia Appraisal

Explore Australia by 4WD: Adventure Treks

This is a softcover non-fiction guidebook titled 'Explore Australia by 4WD: Adventure Treks' authored by Craig Lewis and Cathy Savage. The book features a multi-colored pictorial cover showcasing an outback landscape with a 4WD vehicle, published under the 'Explore Australia' imprint. Physically, the book appears to be a thick, trade paperback with a glossy finish. The cover design utilizes blue, white, and red typography against a background photograph of reddish-brown desert terrain. Notable features include mentions of mapped routes, GPS readings, and classic outback treks spanning 25,000 kilometers. The condition of the book shows some visible wear, including corner bumping and slight curling of the front cover edges, typical of a field guide intended for use. The binding appears intact but shows signs of being well-read. Given the authors and series, this title likely dates to the early 21st century, representing a high-quality production with comprehensive cartographic data for off-road enthusiasts. The craftsmanship is standard for modern publishing, utilizing standard offset printing on likely high-grade paper designed for durability in travel conditions.
