The Steepest Street in the World: Baldwin Street, Dunedin, New Zealand is a substantially revised and enlarged edition of Dunedin author Ian Dougherty's long-since-out-of-print 2006 book on Baldwin Street. It includes the street's history dating back to the 1870s, rival claims to its world's-steepest-street title (most recently from a street in Wales), its role as an important Dunedin tourist attraction, and the various modes of transport that have been used to ascend the street: from pogo sticks to spring-loaded power skippers. The downside of the street's fame is also traversed: from the intrusive effect on residents' lives, to the serious injuries in motor vehicle mishaps, and the death of a student who rode down the street inside a wheelie bin that crashed into a parked trailer near the bottom. A4-size, portrait-shaped, 32 pages comprising 8000 words and 60 colour illustrations. Signed by author.
