From the valleys of Te Urewera to the hinterlands of the South Island, and across to the red, dusty lands of Australia, these stories weave through a landscape of adventure and amusement, populated by larger-than-life characters. These were men and women who lived whole-heartedly their back-country existence and were ready to jump into life at any moment, boots and all.
Within the chapters of this book from the hilarious Im Shot to the poignant Epitaph to a Friend a tale unfolds; a record of one mans hunting adventures and encounters with some real but unusual people in the remoter parts of New Zealand.
Boots n All is a compelling read that continues in the footsteps of the popular first book by author Tony Walsh, The Black Singlet Brigade.
