Background Reading
Take the momentous Gondwanaland bust-up and biodiversity backstory out of the equation,
and you'll find Fiordland dominated by pioneer history - much of it involving isolation,
deprivation and occasional insanity. Allow us to recommend two books to illustrate this
point:
The Land of Doing Without: Davy Gunn of the Hollyford,
by Julia Bradshaw, brings
to life the legendary backcountry hero; and
Pioneers of Martins Bay
- Alice McKenzie's
memoir of growing up in a wild and remote extremity of Fiordland. For excellent illustrated
regional histories, look for anything by John Hall-Jones.
