For the Aussie up there, I recently read Walkabout by James Vance Marshall & Lee Siegel. A gem of a little book; realistic, and very descriptive of the outback fauna.
I have to recommend a book for anybody, and everybody who has actually done a long hike, or has thought about doing one, or just for a good old lol. That is A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson, it is absolutely priceless.
