Book of the Month

Our forever changing Book of the Month a great read that we want to recommend to you... It might not be on the bestsellers' lists; it might not be a movie-tie-in edition of the latest blockbuster; it might not be from an author (or publisher) that you even recognise. It will, however, be a book that our buyers and our staff recommend for its wit, its erudite nature, its beauty and literary lyricism.

Wild Walks Aotearoa

Our Book of the Month for November is Wild Walks Aotearoa by Hannah-Rose Watt.


Are you into the great outdoors already? Thinking about getting started? It's your lucky day! Hannah-Rose Watt, from Ōtautahi Christchurch, has brought us this gem - a very well overdue collection of walks that you can start exploring this summer.

The book contains key info about essential gear; safety on the tracks; how to read topographical maps and trail markers; hut and track etiquette; advice for solo and female trampers; and details and logistics for each walk, this book will be your new tramping buddy.
