Summary: Mysterious and awe-inspiring, the mighty and often sacred trees of New Zealand have stood as silent witness to fascinating and memorable moments in our history. This new kind of tree book is not a photographic study or a guide to species of trees but it is a collection of individual portraits of the most remarkable trees in New Zealand. From the 800-year-old pohutukawa that stands at 'the place of leaping' at Cape Reinga to the Moriori carved 'kopi' (karaka) trees of the Chatham Islands, Trees of New Zealand covers not only our oldest and largest trees but also trees that have histories that are linked to our own. Landscape photographer Mike Hollman's beautiful photographs make these trees come alive and highlights the gorgeous landscapes that often surround them.
