Book Description Paperback. Condition: Good. 118 pages. Cover wornThis book is about the surf, the rocks a nd the sweeping beaches of the New Zealand coastline, and of the lands lying close behind it. It describes the animals and plants and landscapes brought into existence by the play of natural forc es over two million years. In particular it is concerned with man 's impact on this natural setting .We have tried to tell someth ing of the way the coast was formed and moulded, something of its web of life, and something of man's threatened effects on its na tural balances, beauty and drama. Our message is an urgent one, e specially for the northern coasts, now coming under the greatest pressures for development and alteration . We believe that our whole coastline, but most immediately the coast near Auckland, is under threat; and equally that, by enlightened national, regiona l and local policies, it can be saved . -- A note from the auth ors (page ii).
