Indonesia (Guidebook)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Indonesia is a traveller's guide book first published in 1986 in Australia. It is a country-specific guidebook for Indonesia following on from the strength of the South East Asia guidebook by Maureen and Tony Wheeler's Lonely Planet publishing.

It was a natural successor in size and format to Bill Dalton's Indonesia Handbook which was similarly a very large 1,000 page guide book by its later editions and which ceased at the time the Lonely Planet editions were starting and being developed. In providing comprehensive information about the whole country, it provides both essential information and considerable details about places the average traveller is unlikely to ever be able to visit while travelling in Indonesia.

The 8th edition is available, dated 2007.
