I suppose the authors thought they were being funny. Well let me tell you that I don’t find privies to be a laughing matter. Not at all. This volume is a valuable source book on the Australian privy as it was fifty years ago. Important observations can be made about Australian culture specifically and about culture generally as a response to environment. Unfortunately those points cannot be made here as there are no page numbers and I cannot reference my arguments in a satisfactory manner.

For those not familiar with the vernacular, the title can be translated as Authentic Toilets/WCs/Bathrooms.

The a great big country there is still always the need to go... and mix it with the spiders, snakes, no loo-paper, and the vast open spaces.

This is a book of photographs of dunnies in various Australian locations. It is OK, but I've seen way better.
