About

Peter Newton has taken on an ambitious task - the survey of forty- five prominent stations in the eastern North Island, from White Rock in the southern Wairarapa to Waipaoa, a Maori holding in the north of Gisborne. He writes as a South Island sheep man, but soon makes clear that he is no stranger. Blended with the history of each station and an account of its current size and potential are warm and humorous anecdotes of cook and cattlemen, wild sheep and working dogs, bosses and rodeos, of the individuals and activities that together make up New Zealand station life.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images and maps.
