Book excerpt: "Only a century and a half ago, the Manawatu was a heavily forested hinterland: the floodplains were a sea of swamps and lagoons, teeming with birdlife, eels and other fish; the hills and terraces were covered with thick impenetrable forest, refuge perhaps to a few lingering moa. But within a few decades, the forest had been reduced to ashes, and the swamps and lagoons were being drained away. Progress marched across the landscape in the form of farms and settlements. However, it wasn't long before nature "exacted its revenge": erosion scarred the hillsides, floods ravaged farms and towns. Pollution of the rivers saw fish dying en masse. How would the people of the region meet these environmental challenges, and what lessons would there be for the future? By "peeling away the layers", this book tells the intriguing story of the Manawatu's environmental history, drawn from a rich array of sources, maps and historical images"--Back cover.

Book excerpt: (VERB) TO CRY, HOWL, GROAN, WAIL, BAWL. (INTERJECTION) EXPRESSION OF ASTONISHMENT OR DISTRESS. Taukiri was born into sorrow. Aue can be heard in the sound of the sea he loves and hates, and in the music he draws out of the guitar that was his dad's. It spills out of the brutality that killed his father and sent his mother into hiding, and the shame he feels about abandoning his eight-year-old brother to a violent home. But Taukiri's brother, Arama, is braver than he looks. He has a friend, and his friend has a dog. And the three of them together might just be strong enough to turn back the tide of sadness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'An Ill-founded Monopoly' was a submission to the Draft General Policy National Parks Act of August 2003. The submission argued that mountain-biking was a healthy, unintrusive, and nonpolluting outdoor recreation, compatible with the fundamental principles of the National Parks Act 1980, especially Section 4, which stated that parks should 'be maintained in natural state, and public to have right of entry'. Therefore, it argued, the General Policy should recognise mountain-biking as a permissible recreation within national parks, on designated tracks..
