ABOUT
A personal, step-by-step chronicle of Reed's incredible 1,750-mile (approx. 2,800 km) solo trek across the entire length of New Zealand.

A younger man might have been tempted to break records, but an older man... It is unlikely that there will ever be an older man than Mr A H Reed walking the whole length of New Zealand. Characteristically, he made no special preparations for the journey except for having ordinary, serviceable clothes; so ordinary, in fact, that his passage through a town would have gone unremarked if it had not been for the interest which mounted the further south he progressed.

Well illustrated with monochrome images, maps on end papers.

Includes various newspaper cuttings.
