Home in the Howling Wilderness: Settlers and the Environment in Southern New Zealand
Peter Holland
During the nineteenth century European settlers transformed the environment of New Zealand's South Island. They diverted streams and drained marshes, burned native vegetation and planted hedges and grasses, stocked farms with sheep and cattle and poured on fertiliser. Peter Holland undertakes a deep history of that settlement to answer key questions about New Zealand's ecological transformation.
