A permaculture guidebook from East Timor (Permaculture Timor

[lmh]

Hi all,

I'm trying to source the following guidebook:
A Permaculture Guidebook from East Timor (Permaculture Timor Lorosa'e) - Written by Lachlan McKenzie, with Ego Lemos

Does anyone know where I can buy this from? Or would anyone have contact details for Lachlan McKenzie or Ego Lemos so that I can purchase from them direct? Or does anyone have a copy that they no longer have a use for and would like to sell it? I have trawled the internet, but have had no luck.

Thanks so much in advance,
Laura

G'day Laura

Sorry, I can not help you with finding a copy to buy.

Victoria University (see: link below) claim to have a copy, maybe you could borrow it?

Thanks compostpaul,
If only it were in English...Is there any way of translating it?

Hi there,
sorry about the mistake. The foreword is written in English so I assumed the rest of the book was too.
I guess the free downloads are meant only for Timorese people and us rich westerners can pay for the English version and fair enough too.
This is the only link I managed to find for sale.

If that does not help the try contacting the authors at these addresses
LLachlan McKenzie at http://www.enjoy-darwin.com/permacul...gn-course.html
and Ego Lemos at
http://www.egolemos.com/EL/permaculture.html
And if you're interested you might have a look at my book too which is based on my experiences in tropical gardening in North Queensland and a bit of Thailand.

Hope this helps.

Yes I found the English version of the book online too - great book! I'm actually trying to contact Lachlan myself so if anyone has any contacts for him can you please pass them on?
