Footprints on the Land: How Humans Changed New Zealand - Richard Wolfe
Less than a thousand years of human occupation have massively altered Aotearoa.
In this fascinating work, cultural historian Richard Wolfe explores how and why settlers have impacted on nature and what this means for our future.
Footprints on the Land is a timely review of the human place in our environment, distinguished by
art and photographs that show what we've created and what we've lost.
