About this title

Synopsis

The foreword (by William Cronon, U. of Wisonsin-Madison) passionately sets forth the reasons for reprinting this work which was first published in 1921, and has remained obscure outside of New Zealand. He identifies it as "one of the great English- language classics of environmental history," and tells why a book about a New Zealand sheep station is eminently relevant to today's environmental concerns in the United States and elsewhere. Guthrie-Smith's book features his astonishing ecological understanding as he tells detailed stories of both native and non- native plants and animals on his New Zealand tract, framing these stories as narratives of invasion.
