Produced by R.M.Williams Publishing in partnership with Australian bespoke travel experts
Outback Encounter, Australia in Style is recognised as the bible of five-star travel in regional and
remote Australia. For this stunning edition, a team of leading Australian photojournalist journeyed
the length and breadth of the country to capture 35 outstanding destinations with spectacular
photography and evocative words. The foreword is written by well know media identity Rupert
Murdoch, AC, KCSG, Chairman and Managing Director of News Corporation.
Australia in Style opens up a cornucopia of exceptional destinations to inspire both the armchair
and experiential traveller. The launch of the book coincides with the release of “Australia. A Baz
Luhrmann Film” starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman, in an epic romantic adventure that
opens only in theaters on November 26, 2008.
This is off-the-beaten track travel with a sophisticated edge. Australia in Style presents the
country’s best resorts, lodges, cattle stations, safaris, private guides, from the ‘barefoot elegance’ of
Western Australia’s Kimberley gem Faraway Bay, to the polished chic of Kangaroo Island’s cliff-top
Southern Ocean Lodge. The film crew from Baz Lurhman’s film production company, Bazmark Inq
stayed at Faraway Bay, the exclusive wilderness camp to film nearby landscapes including King
George Falls.
Share in the lives of the authentic outback stations then watch the sun go down over the desert as
you dine in elegance beneath the stars. Take a private helicopter tour over rivers teeming with
crocodiles and birdlife, then cool off beneath a mighty Kimberley waterfall. Fish the azure waters of
your own tropical paradise, and then feast on your fresh haul of coral trout or barramundi. Explore
the pages of Australia in Style for an inspiring journey across Australia’s luxury travel sector.
Australia in Style is due for release in early November, 2008 and is available at traditional
bookstores including Barnes & Noble, Borders, Books-A-Million, Hastings, Powells Books, and
independent book stores for US$44.95.
