Summary: "The definitive book on Earth's seventh geological continent - a spellbinding revision of the natural environment in which New Zealand and the western Pacific exist"--Book jacket.Summary: "Imagine a typical continent with seemingly endless land in all directions. There are broad valleys and uplands, wide-open vistas across undulating plains, and upstanding mountain ranges far in the distance. There may be prominent features that command attention and draw the eye, such as odd-shaped hills, peaks, pinnacles and volcanoes. And there may be canyons, valleys, gorges, large depressions and basins. Now imagine this same continent under the sea, and largely drowned. Welcome to Zealandia"--Book jacket.
