Finding Fiordland by Florence Preston

Illustrated soft cover book in good condition- Published by A.H. & A.W. Reed, 1977 - 80 pages- colour and b/w photographs - maps.

Fascinating highly informative account of the last frontier, Lakes & Streams of Fiordland, nature seems to have stood still and taken a last stand against technology and artificiality of the modern world. Unspoiled region, wealth of beauty, , Preston here vividly recaptures the lives of early explorers and latter-day personalities, as well as some of the Maori legends which typify the magic that lingers still in Fiordland's morning mists and lonely valleys.
