Book Description
Indigenous peoples, British settlers, recent immigrant groups: Australia's past--along with the vast continent it occupies--gives the country its unique character. The astounding beauty of the Great Barrier Reef; the Outback still home to many aborigines; the native instrument called the didgeridoo; world-class cities such as Melbourne and Sydney--these highlights and more are celebrated in this volume on Australia's customs and culture. Covering history and religion; family and friends; food and drink; school and work; arts and entertainment; and cities, towns, and the countryside, Tradition, Culture, and Daily Life: Major Nations in a Global World explores what makes key countries unique magnets for the world's fascination.
