I have just checked Abebooks http://www.abebooks.com/?%20cm_mmc=ggl-_-AU_AbeBooks_Brand-_-Top+Brand-_-AbeBooksabebooks and they listed two copies of Ross Bennett's book.

The Bennett book has long been out of print, and I have never been able to find a second hand copy. Jenkins & bartell was published in 1980 and most likely is long out of print
The good news though is that as part of the 50th birthday celebrations, the NPA planned to put out a second edition of Bennett's book (and also a book on insects of the ACT by Roger Farrow).
Another useful book is Gerry Swan, Glenn Shea & Ross Sadlier, 'A Field Guide to Reptiles of NSW', 2nd Ed., New Holland, 2004.
'A Field Guide to Reptiles of New South Wales features every gecko, lizard, dragon, skink, snake and turtle known to live throughout the many habitats of New South Wales. This State reptile guide narrows down the field of species identification to a manageable size for any naturalist.
The details that make identification possible lie in the descriptions of families, genera and species; these are accompanied by clear line drawings. Where you need to tune out similar species, simple keys are provided. For herpetologists, the location maps will prove invaluable.
This book is a thorough update, expansion and revision of A Field Guide to the Snakes and Lizards of New South Wales published in 1990.'
