  A portrayal of a country with rich and diverse landscapes. There are snow-capped mountains that thrust into startling blue skies; mountains of fire, that are centrepieces of a thermal wonderland, clothed in densely green rainforests; tranquil lakes, surrounded by mountains or fringed with luxuriant bush; rivers that rage through frightening gorges, then flow peacefully between gentle hills; clean pasture, on the river flats and hills, grazed year-round by sheep and cattle; and sweeps of sandy beach, and bold rocky headlands washed by restless seas. The photographs in this volume seek to capture the uniqueness and grandeur, the beauty and drama, of New Zealand's magnificent landscapes, from its lofty mountains to its dramatic coasts.
