56 pages. Hard cover with dust jacket. First edition published in Australia by Rigby Ltd in 1980.
Size: 19.1 cm x 24.7 cm.
The front flyleaf reads:
"In this book the Mornington Peninsula artist and photographer, Nick Johannsohn, presents his own special vision of the area he knows so intimately.
As well as depicting the natural beauty of the Peninsula in black and white and coloured photographs, the author describes over forty localities in the text, and this book contains maps and also detailed charts which feature many forms of outdoor recreation available on the Peninsula. These activities include fishing, boating, surfing, bathing, diving, picnicking, bushwalking, and observing nature. Visitors to the area as well as local inhabitants will find the book to be of great interest, while Old Timers will recognise many of their favourite haunts.
The mystery and poetry of these places will doubtless be swept aside in the course of future urban and industrial development, but this book provides a permanent record of them."
In good condition. Please see the photos - they form part of the description.
Some scuffing, small marks, creasing & shelf wear to the dust jacket. There is a small tear to the top of the spine of the dust jacket. The boards are very good, with some shelf wear to the bottom edge. The binding is excellent. The pages are yellowing lightly due to age. There are small faint yellow/brown marks to a couple pages. There is a very light crease to the top inner corner of the pages. No torn or missing pages.
This is a used item to be sold "as is". I have described it as well as I can.
