ABOUT
A tribute to the great kauri forests of the North, blending natural history, forestry practice, and cultural reflection.
Adams traces the tree’s botanical uniqueness, immense size, and slow growing majesty, explaining why kauri earned its reputation as the monarch of New Zealand timbers.
He also recounts the rise of the kauri gum and timber industries, the environmental cost of large scale milling, and the early conservation efforts that sought to preserve remaining stands.
Illustrated throughout with monochrome images, colour images on end papers.
