Description

This book provides a fascinating study of one of the earliest and more important economic activities in New Zealand - the timber industry. The ingenuity, attitudes and clever technology of the bushmen were to have an important influence on the do-it-yourself character of New Zealand society in the years that followed. This book explores the life, work and technology of the early bushmen of New Zealand.
