Thank you, Kathleen, for your kind comment. In the first instance, and to gain a REASONABLE impression, the best thing to do is to go to the website for the book, www.ethnicartpress.com.au, which I think we can honestly claim is unusually full and informative. However, as the book is very large and full (more than 700 illustrations; more than 115 000 words; and a total of 420 big and thick pages) it comes across to those seeing it in "real life" as far more impressive again than the website - though as accurate as we can make it - leads most people to believe. Fortunately people don't complain!!
