About

An account of high country sheep farming in a remote and isolated area of the South Island. She tells of harsh winters, of self-reliance, education in the back-blocks and anecdotes about station life and its personalities. Terri Macnicol and her husband spent many years on the Mount Aurum Sheep Station in the NZ South Island High Country. Mount Aurum station is at the end of the Skippers Road, an old gold mining road built late in the 19th Century. It's a remote area, and forty to fifty years ago it was even more so.

Illustrated throughout with monochrome images and map.

Maps on end papers.
