A worthy product for a fantastic country. December 17, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
New Zealand is going through something of a renaissance of tourism following the Lord of the Rings films and the programmes of Billy Connolly. Of course, New Zealand is perfectly located on that part of the earth's surface to give it tropical, sub-tropical and non-tropical locations. That, in itself, makes the country extremely interesting in terms of flora and fauna - both above and below the surface of the sea.
I like the fact that the Contents page is headed "Map of New Zealand - page 6." What better place to start. The remainder of that page reads; The Farthest Paradise, the Land, Outlying Islands, the People, History, Relics of History and, finally, the Political and Economic Systems. And they are all there, Described in an easy-to-read and flowing style which makes you want to call your travel operator and head for this wonderful country.
Well supported throughout with a carefully chosen and relevant selection of photographs from yesterday and today, this is a book which will explain New Zealand - as it should be explained, to anyone who wants to know.
