North West Nelson Tramping Guide
by Derek Shaw ($19.95, Nikau Press). OVER THE YEARS Nikau Press have quietly been building up a track record as a publisher of quality guide books to the natural areas of the northern South Island.
This latest addition to their publication list will be welcomed both by those who already know that North West Nelson is a tramper’s paradise and those who so far have heard of it only by reputation. More ambitious than the other guides (there is much more territory to cover) the 100-page book is more than simply a guide. It also contains sections on the diverse flora and fauna, the complex geology, and the human history of the areas a tramper would pass through. Few know the North West Nelson wilderness as intimately as Derek Shaw. Those planning their next tramping holiday to the region would be wise to invest in the book before they set out. The book can be bought for $19.95 direct from Nikau Press, PO Box 602, Nelson.
