Trade Me : The Inside Story order quantity
  +   -
 
NZ$ 39.99 each
Paperback
Author: Michael 'MOD' O'Donnell
In Stock: 15
Few companies have captured the hearts and minds of New Zealanders like Trade Me. Originally built on a borrowed laptop by university drop-out Sam Morgan, Trade Me has changed the face of retailing in New Zealand. Destroying newspapers' classifieds businesses, car and property dealers, and partnering with select websites and companies, the company then went on to be sold for a staggering $750 million to Fairfax. Trade Me has become part of our local vernacular and also the number one force on the New Zealand internet with some 2.5 million Kiwis listed as members.

Cowpats and Brickbats order quantity

NZ$ 19.99 each
Paperback
Author: D. Henshaw
In Stock: 1
Featuring 40 or so tall tales - most true, some not-so-true, but all entertaining and illustrated by New Zealand's best known country cartoonist and artist, David Henshaw. A note from the authors : Hard times and hard lives generate hard-case characters, and with them go a host of yarns. The Waikato is no exception. Tucked away beneath the veneer of success, green pastures and four-wheelers there is a background of years of hard labour and drudgery often rewarded by ongoing poverty. A generation or two down the track we all benefit from the sheer bloody-minded persistence of those families who turned peat swamps and untrackable hills into the multimillion-dollar dairy and sheep farms that now dominate the whole area. Those pioneers, and the more recent Waikato characters, have left behind a fair bunch of stories. There is an old saying that if you didn't laugh you'd just sit down and cry. I have no doubt that the latter happened fairly ... more

High Country Lark : An Invitation to Paradise order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 45.00 each
Paperback
Author: Neville Peat
In Stock: 1
The New Zealand high country holds a special place for us all: it's New Zealand's equivalent of the 'Wild West': a rugged, rustic, spectacularly beautiful frontier. The relationship we have with the hills, mountains and lakes resonants within us all when we hear the words HIGH COUNTRY. Its steep mountains, tumbling rivers, moss-bedecked beech forest, and snow and ice in high places speak of 'a mountain fastness and wilderness dramatically arrayed' - we call it 'Middle Earth'. The characters who roamed the hills, old prospectors like Arawata Bill, are like our own Jessie James or Kit Carson. It ought to be a haven for wildlife: for the mischievous kea and for the haunting song of the kakapo. Author Neville Peat takes us into the Head of the Lake area - that's head of Lake Wakatipu. Into Paradise - yes it's a real place - up the Rees Valley, into the Dart, the Greenstone and Caples valleys. We roam the hills and meet up with the Lark, an ... more
