This book is the record of a personal journey by two men, a writer and a photographer, into the rural heartland of New Zealand. covers musters in Glenray Station deep in the high back country of Southland. From that experience grew the idea of taking part in different kinds of sheep and cattle musters throughout N.z. from the rivers of Westland to the dunes of Northland, from the remote east coast to the South Island's vast Molesworth Station. The idea was to capture the glory of these uniquely NZ farming adventures which had already endured intact for 100 years, before inevitable changes in landscape and methods. This book is a feast of back-country colour and action which you will never ever get to see unless invited along.
