Guides the reader on a voyage of discovery, where ancient and modern people live side-by-side, making New Zealand a latter-day paradise. This book contains scenery captured in full colour photography; and is a title in the popular "Countries of the World" series.
New Zealand is a land of extremes, almost by definition: endless green valleys and tangled labyrinths of tropical forest; vast sheep farms and orderly kiwi fruit plantations; crystal-clear lakes teeming with fish; majestic snowy peaks and lively modern cities. Where the culture of the Maori comes face to face with the many cultures of European Immigrants who have come here, to the end of the world. Like precious gems set in the immense blue expanse of the Pacific Ocean, the two great Islands that constitute New Zealand offer a spectacular sequence of landscapes unlike anything else on earth. Aotearoa, the Land of the Long White Cloud in the Maori tongue, features in fact craggy cliffs broken by fjords, ice rivers that run across endless plains, alpine peaks mantled by thick blankets of snow, daunting cone-shaped volcanoes yawning skyward, and vapour-spewing geysers. New Zealand is an endless succession of unexplored tropical forests alternating with crystal-clear lakes, pleasant meadowlands, soft rolling hills, sun-kissed beaches, and enchanting bays on the beaches of which turquoise seas lap gently.
This book, with its lovely pictures, offers to guide the reader on a voyage of discovery, where ancient and modern peoples live side by side, making this land a latter-day paradise. It contains magnificent scenery captured in full colour photography; and is the latest title in the popular "Countries of the World" series.
