Our New Zealand: A Celebration of our National Treasures & Pleasures

It's a big ask to sum up what makes a nation tick, and what its people treasure and love. It can be done by selecting objects, music, poems, songs, recipes, heroes and touchstones that stand for the myriad strands that combine to create a national culture. That's what this book seeks to do — it's a sampler of New Zealand's storehouse of treasures, to take home to be part of yours.

Beautifully illustrated, with stunning photographs by some of this country's best photographers, it's a book for New Zealanders to share with friends, family and associates who live overseas — and also a book that reminds us of how lucky we are to live here.
