Delving Deeper, Half A Century of Cave Discovery in New Zealand
compiled by Moira Lipyeat, edited by Les Wright, 312pp hardback, Hazard Press 2003, RRP$49.95. This book celebrates ‘underground’ New Zealand. The text traces the development of speleology in New Zealand, and there are supplementary notes
about caving generally — longest caves, caving terms, Maori words, etc. Like the alpinists of old, caving has its heroes and explorers; here they are in a detailed history likely to fascinate anyone penetrating this other world.
