Publisher Description
Thirteen well-crafted tales exploring the amazing diversity to be found within New Zealand’s shores. In this second collection of his best published stories (also available is Going to Extremes), Derek Grzelewski writes of his journeys through New Zealand. He discovers in these small islands a land very much like a continent in the diversity of its spaces and places, and the people who live, work and play there.The subjects as rich and varied as the landscape itself. There are stories of the people who shaped the country, of stargazing in the clear night skies of the Mackenzie Country, of flying remote mail routes or hunting for gold in the back country. You will also shape clay with potters, cycle forest trails, sled with snow dogs, swim with dolphins, wonder at whales; and this is just a glimpse of what is in New Zealand, the ‘smallest continent’.
