Synopsis

Shadbolt, Maurice

Reviews

A leading New Zealand author and similarly distinguished New Zealand photographer have combined their talents here. The result is quite possibly one of the most comprehensive and appealing guides to New Zealand that has been produced in many years. The text contains 590 beautiful, full-color photographs and 20 maps. The format is user friendly, with places of interest in the 20 designated regions arranged in the form of a geographical dictionary. Capturing the character, history, and scenic beauty of the country, this work functions at many levels: traveler's guide, reference source, and just plain good reading. Highly recommended by this expatriate New Zealander. Susan M. Unger, Madison P.L., N.J.
