Tongariro National Park : An Artist's Field Guide

Tongariro National Park is an artist’s exploration of the park’s plants, animals and landscapes. With 400 illustrations and an informative but accessible text, Bovey deconstructs the park’s amazing landscapes, giving us not only scenery but the bones beneath. He describes how the plants and animals fit together and depend upon each other for survival in the often harsh and inhospitable Volcanic Plateau. Tongariro National Park is a field guide of rare quality for this popular park, home to one of the world’s most popular walks, the Tongariro Alpine Crossing.
