Wildflowers & Plants of Central Australia by Anne Urban is a portable, comprehensive guide to the region’s flora, featuring detailed descriptions and stunning photographs. The area covered is essentially all of the NT south of Barrow Creek. The book will also be useful in the arid regions of Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. First published in 1990, it was written during Anne’s outback travels with her photographer husband and botanist brother, offering a “plant walk” through central Australia’s diverse landscapes. This fully revised edition by Jenny Purdie, Barb Gilfedder, and Peter Jobson stays true to Anne’s vision of an accessible reference. All species names have been updated as far as possible in this revised edition
