Dry But Essential,
By Patrick Sullivan (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Working & Living Australia (Working & Living - Cadogan) (Paperback)
I have purchased a one-way ticket to Sydney, Australia with plans to attend graduate school and possibly get a job in the country. This book, while extremely helpful, can be dry at times and is written primarily from the British perspective. However, when dealing with such exciting topics and taxation, bureaucracy and housing, one cannot expect the most spectacular prose and the British viewpoint can be easily circumvented with some careful reading.
